Home Actress Hāwane Rios HD Photos and Wallpapers February 2024 Hāwane Rios Instagram - amplifying from @officiallahainastrong 🚨 URGENT 🚨 For too long already the powerful have played politics with Hawaiʻi’s freshwater resources. The interests of private water purveyors, real estate speculators, and the US military dictate water policy behind the scenes. That is why many of our streams run dry, kalo farmers struggle, wildfires are rampant, and jet fuel lingers in the water. But today we have an opportunity to get the politics out of our water policy by supporting SB3327 to separate the Water Commission from the Department of Land and Natural Resources. In the aftermath of the Lahaina fires in August, those that benefit from plantation disaster capitalism made bold moves to solidify control of freshwater resources in Maui Komohana. The Governor suspended the Water Code, creating a free-for-all over freshwater in West Maui. Private water purveyors hoarded more and more water in unlined reservoirs, taking far more water than they are legally allowed or that they could reasonably use, claiming it was needed for fire suppression. Most shockingly, the Director of the Department of Land and Natural Resources folded to pressure from these private companies and removed the deputy director of the Water Commission on false allegations that he did not allow stream water to be used to fight the Lahaina wildfires. Now, we have an opportunity to liberate Hawaiʻi’s water policies from the corrupting influences of money and politics. SB3327 aims to improve implementation of the state Water Code by shielding the Water Commission’s staff and volunteer board from the influences of interests unrelated to upholding the public trust doctrine, and the proper management of surface and ground water resources for the benefit of all people. This bill converts the Water Commission’s deputy director into an executive director, reinforces the Public Trust Doctrine, and empowers the Commission with independent legal counsel and control over its budget. The time is now! Submit written testimony at capitol.hawaii.gov by Tuesday afternoon at 3:00pm. 🚨

Hāwane Rios Instagram – H Ō L A N I 

Inviting you into this intimate moment on Hōlanikū, the eldest atoll in our island chain. I was called by my ancestral mandate to build ahu in all cardinal directions and one central one. This is the largest ahu on Hōlanikū, set in the wahi of Punanakamanu, that I named for the camp area. My sister helped me to gather the small ko’a that is the paepae of this ahu. She helped me to offer ‘awa and oli here at this ahu. She completed the portion of her Rites of Passage that I was alaka’i of here at this ahu. 

I stood here every morning and evening to ceremony. When I close my eyes and need to center myself in my mauli, this is where I go. This is my sacred place of ritual and prayer. My hand touched every ko’a that makes up this ahu. There was a prayer and chant in every setting of every coral that sits here. 

I tried to do build five ahu when I was on Hōlanikū at 22 but I knew the way I built them wouldn’t last. It took building ahu on the mauna and in my own pā hale to prepare me to create them on Hōlanikū at 33 with the permission of the land and of the ko’a. Hōlanikū guided me through every stage and gave me strength to bring this many ko’a from the shores I love, inland to the land I love. It is the highest and most sacred offering I have made in my life.

I remain in contact with every single field camp that goes out there to guide them on how to take care of them and align with them from here as they do ceremony there. 

The ahu that sits in the west is dedicated to the divine feminine and is named after the Hale o Papa of Pu’uhonua o Hōnaunau and the divine feminine goddesses that created everything we know. The name of that ahu is ‘Akahipapahonuamea. 

I named this papa that begins today after that ahu because the purpose is centered in the same thing – a sacred commitment to healing and a sacred commitment to our living culture. 

The registration link will open until Thursday
