17 January 1891
The Legitimate Government
of these Hawaiian Islands
was overthrown.
The People Remember,
The `Aina, the Heavens,
the Sea,
and the Moku
all remember.
Hawaiian Sovereignty
Un-relinquished
in our hearts,
our hopes,
our young.
Thanks for visiting!
Warmly, cloudia

I adore how you honour the founders of your adopted land. We have had such a terrible past of invading and colonializing.
Cheers from Cottage Country!

Aloha!
The "Legitimate" Government was overthrown sounds uneasy !
Cool post...
White people again?
A sad story that could have been better if the dudes in DC had a conscious. What year is that stamp?; statehood? I'm honored the Hawaiians allow visitors to their special state after we stole it! DrumMajor
Sadly, not an uncommon story...
A sorry tale of so many places. Well said.
You'll find mine here.
A memorable day for Hawaiians Cloudia, not always good memories oui.
Thank you for this, Cloudia. Some in our family are Native Hawaiian and anyone who feels a connection to the islands can't help but remember this sad chapter.
a sad story indeed..
hugs
A most lovely, and thoughtful post Cloudia!
