Trust in what is trustworthy- each other.
Those who lie, don’t even believe themselves anymore- they can’t, because our communities have been too persistent and purposeful in excavating and laying bare the truths they have been to cowardly and controlled to do the work to bring to light of consciousness. Trust us.

We knew enough. Now we’ve confirmed we know enough. What will we do about it?
#icc #genocide #ceasefirenow #israel #gaza #palestine #BDS
Every day is a day to stand for their lives- to fight with them for their survival-from whatever place you stand, as you stand for your own life, for your family, for your community it’s -stand for Palest👁️ne!
There is nothing in my life these days that I live that does not bring Palestine to heart and mind. Everything is shifting, has already changed more radically than ever- we cannot not know how much we are up against, I am conscious of every thing that feeds into the powers of I$ra3l and I’m divesting everywhere, what I eat, where I grocery, what my child watches and plays with, where we go for leisure and fun and I also am transferring those things to places and things that support from afar their lives persisting, tending to my relationships with even greater care, holding my daughter with more care, loving my partner with more tenderness, treating each stranger with kindness and humanity even if a piece of me fears their opposition to me. And work and creation just is not and cannot be the same. I cannot stop and will not stop talking about how everything ties back to Palestine and that is why Palestine has to be at the forefront of our movements, as we stand with Palest👁️ne we amplify all the things we fight for in equity and justice.
Most especially I hold the Palestin👁️ans in how I hold my children-the one I birthed, the ones I teach, and the ones who I am entrusted to raise in village beside their parents who are my kin and comrades. I hold them with the whole of my life, honoring the whole of theirs- I thought I was already doing so before, but my presence grows and deepens each day and I mean to grow them all with the power of knowing what is to come and the readiness of not knowing what is to come.
As we live, we must call for the lives of Palestin👁️ans to persist- not just to our governments, but to every person we encounter and we pour into/that pour into us. We need our communities to be educated, aligned and stay ready for what ways to move next. Together.
Your daily doses of clarity of intent.
No need to justify for them- they are crystal clear about why they are committing a g3n0c1d3.
one reason apparently is to get a clear view of the sea free of the life of arabs in the way… we can’t make this up ya’ll.

“Erase Gaza so that settlers can see the sea”
Daniella Weiss, the head of the Nahala settlement movement, spoke on Israel’s Channel 14 saying that the Israeli army should erase Gaza of its people so it can become a ‘Jewish Gaza’.
She described the process as ‘romantic’ and will result in allowing Israelis to see the sea from neighbouring settlements

do you see what i see?
feeling the kūpuna islands close to my heart these days
it’s as if they knew what was to come before i did
as if they were preparing me
for my great shattering
for my hānau kupanaha
for my own hānau wawā
thrice over in one life
i wonder
did i feel this earthquake
across all of my timelines
across kahikikū?
across kahikimoe?
can a soul feel fatigue?
can a soul feel grief?
can a soul feel what comes after the healing?
my soul says yes
thrice over
h ō l a n i k ū
solstice reunited me with hōlanikū
a star linked us across the rainbow bridge
of Keānuenue
daughter of Kū & Hina
a daughter of Kuaihelani
and in real time
my voice reached through the cosmos
and there i was again
the place of my heart
the seat of my soul
h ō l a n i k ū
i taught this years Hōlanikū Winter Season Crew the oli, ‘‘O Wāhi Mai e Lono ē.” it was surreal to see them in real time. to see hōlanikū in real time. to receive photos of the ahu i built and care for through the tides of each crew.
to spend even just a small moment chanting from one end to the other of our island nation for peace felt like home to my spirit.
i’m still receiving this special moment. i’m ready to share more about my love for hōlanikū in this space.

i would wake up before sunrise
to witness the night dance into day
my elder Lani Ākau once told me
that every sunrise and every sunset
is unique
like you
like me
not one is exactly the same
so i drank every single one in
as if it was my last
because it would be the last time my eyes
would see the light cast into the heavens
unto the land
unto the ahu that i built with my own hands
as it wasn’t
i drank it in like i drink awa
with offerings first to the above
between
below
and the ancestors that sit on my shoulders
at my back
and on my chest
and then i place the apu of golden rays
to my lips
and i do not put it down
until it is finished
and then i cup my hands
and clap twice
and remember who i am thrice

amplifying with reverence for sea of grief that has engulfed Palestine for over 70 years and over 70 days
“Palestinian families in Gaza bidding farewell to their loved love, they were never numbers they were people who were loved deeply, remember their names.”
kū.mā.kena
vt. To lament, bewail, mourn loudly for the dead
our word for intense grief
i have never said this word so much in my life
from the moment the fire burned through beloved Lahaina
to the moment we stood at Pu’u Laina to kanikau for the
many people who lost their lives in the flames
to the moment the bombs dropped over sleeping babies
it has been kūmākena
they are not just numbers on our screens
they are not just the bodies their spirits had to leave behind
they are
they were
and always will be
real people who lived and who loved
who were beloved by those who cherished them
who raised them
who fed them
who laughed with them
who ate with them
& dreamed with them
israel is literally murdering innocent civilians and “christian leaders” like biden are busy signing off on more money and more bombs to be dropped over real innocent people.
and why is it that all of the babies and young children we see are dead in their pajamas?
it is because israel strikes at night
when they trying to sleep
but can’t knowing that the sounds of the bombs are coming closer
i could not even try to imagine the fear
of knowing that the home you love could come crashing down unto you and your entire ‘ohana in seconds
so many christians – so many people who believe in jesus
and who are celebrating his day of birth in just a few days
are absolutely just fine watching palestinians die at the hands of their “fearless leaders”
this country was cursed the moment they killed the first indigenous people of these lands
it will be cursed for all eternity
because there are too many of us
too many descendants of the witches and ceremonial women that they could not burn, rape, beat, and hang, and murder
to many of our ancestors survived
and now we are the many
and we still have the magic
we still know the incantations
we still pray in the middle of the night under
the same stars and the same moon
and so it is
so it shall be
no . more . war
offering of song and love for Palestine from @kaiboymusic, @thesteppasofficial, & me
coming out on 12.29.23
🖤🤍💚♥️
with this song we declare our solidarity with poetry and chant. we harmonized our voices in prayer for peace and harmony to be lived and known by the people of palestine and all oppressed peoples of this earth. we unite with a powerful message that demands a permanent cease fire and return of sovereignty to Palestine and her beloved people.
i offer my voice in song and chant from the depths of my womb to the expanse of my heart to the heart of Palesetina. i wrote this chant to call upon all kia’i mauna and kia’i aloha ‘āina, all protectors of the mountains we love to the seas we cherish, to stand united in our plea for the end of all genocide unto all people.
i know i could’ve just continued to scream into the wind. this time i chant. and this time, it will be heard.
Kū nā kia‘i Mauna a Wākea
