Juan Jose Castelli: Juan Jose Castelli was one of the leaders of the May Revolution. This led to the Argentine War of Independence and sort of abolished slavery in the South/Central Americas. It was an important war since it gave Argentine independence from the Spanish colonial rule. Castelli shows the leadership trait I ali‘i ke ali‘i ke kanaka (the chief is the chief because of the people). He shows this trait since he was one of the main leaders of the May Revolution which would lead to the Argentine War for Independence. According to an encyclopedia article titled Juan Jose Castelli, “The May Revolution was instead the result of the convergence of diverse factions that shared the desire to remove the viceroy, and different historians highlight different specific factions.[52]Castelli is largely ignored in Bolivia as well. His support of indigenous rights—still an ongoing issue in the country—and his religious ideas strongly affect the way he is perceived there.[53]” This shows how he cared for the people and how he wanted the people to be equal as well as stand up against the Spanish colony. Another trait that Castelli shows is courage of a man regardless of gender. He shows this trait as he was one of the leaders of the May Revolution, which shows courage since a good leader trying to rebel against a government must have bravery and courage to do it. His encyclopedia states that, “Castelli planned a revolution to replace the absolute monarchy with the new ideas of the Age of Enlightenment. He led the Buenos Aires patriots during the May Revolution, which ended with the removal of viceroy Baltasar Hidalgo de Cisneros from power. He is known as the ‘Speaker of the Revolution’ for his speech during the open cabildo held in Buenos Aires on 22 May 1810.” This shows his courage since he was not afraid to stand up against the Spanish and openly spoke his opinions for Revolution as he was given the title “Speaker of the Revolution.”
Bernice Pauahi Bishop: Pauahi was a princess of the Hawaiian Monarch and showed a great amount of leadership skills. According to an article titled A Legacy of a Princess, “She believed education would offer her people hope and a future, so she left her estate — about nine percent of the total acreage of the Hawaiian kingdom — to found Kamehameha Schools.” (3) This shows the leadership skill, I ali’i ke ali’i ke kanaka, the chief is the chief because of the people since Pauahi noticed that the Native Hawaiian population greatly decreased from the time she was born and decided to take action. According to A Legacy of a Princess, “When Pauahi was born, the Native Hawaiian population numbered about 124,000. When she wrote her will in 1883, only 44,000 Hawaiians remained. Pauahi witnessed the rapid decline of the Hawaiian population. With that decline came a loss of Hawaiian language, culture and traditions.” (3) Overall, Pauahi shows that she is a leader because she cares for the people since she noticed the decline in her peoples’ culture and just a decline in Hawaiians overall, so Pauahi wanted to do something to bring and revive her Hawaiian Culture for the generations to come. This also shows the next leadership trait that Pauahi also exemplifies. Another trait that Pauahi shows is courage of a man regardless of gender since she stood up and made a change for the decreasing Hawaiian population, and was able to achieve her goal. The article says that Pauahi made the school “‘to erect and maintain in the Hawaiian Islands two schools, each for boarding and day scholars, one for boys and one for girls, to be known as, and called the Kamehameha Schools.’ She also stipulated that preference should be given to Hawaiians of pure or part aboriginal blood.” This shows her bravery and care since she didn’t see any action that was being taken to help the Hawaiians and to bring back their culture, so she decided to have courage and make that change for the Hawaiians, making Kamehameha Schools and bringing us here to where we are today.

What I have learned about World History through a Hawaii Culture based perspective was that there are many similarities as well as differences between the content of the area that I have learned in this flipped classroom environment. We can see some similarities in the movie Rabbit Proof Fence (South Africa) and in Hawaii as well. In the movie, the three main characters Molly, Daisy and Gracie are forced to be taken to the Moore River Settlement and are forced to abandon anything about their past culture and are ingrained with the Western culture. The motive for the person in charge Mr. Neville was to force the native blood and culture out of the aboriginal children by taking all of them to the settlement to teach them differently. We can see this similarity in Hawaii back in the days when it was colonized and the Hawaiians that were in school were unable to speak their language and learn about their culture. They were forced to learn about the Western culture, which killed and almost wiped out the entire Hawaiian language and culture until Pauahi opened Kamehameha Schools to revive it. We can also see a similarity in Gandhi since throughout the movie Gandhi has many countless efforts to peacefully protest, or in our cultural understanding, Kapu Aloha to protest against the British for their unfair discrimination against the Indians. He used the force of the people and his status as a lawyer to protest for their freedom, eventually winning it. This is seen in Hawaii in efforts like Mauna Kea, where the Hawaiians are trying to stand up against the government to try to stop them from building their telescope on the mountain, refusing to back down.

Pedro 1
He became known as "the Liberator" as well as "the Soldier King" a person who liberates a person or place from imprisonment or oppression. His autocratic manner which is a leader who has absolute power but he takes no account of other people's wishes or opinions; domineering. His lack of enthusiasm for parliamentary government. His continuing deep interest in Portuguese affairs antagonized his subjects, as did the failure of his military forces in a war with Argentina over what is now Uruguay.
Bernice Pauahi
Pauahi Pākī was born on December 19, 1831 in Honolulu, Hawai‘i to high chiefs Abner Pākī and Laura Kōnia Pākī. She was the great-granddaughter of Kamehameha I, the warrior chief who united the Hawaiian islands under his rule in 1810. As the last royal descendant of the Kamehameha line, Pauahi inherited thousands of acres of land, much of it from the estate of her cousin Princess Ruth Ke‘elikōlani. Pauahi’s inheritance, about nine percent of the island chain’s total acreage, made her the largest landholder in the kingdom. Pauahi witnessed the rapid decline of the Hawaiian population, along with the loss of Hawaiian language, culture and traditions. She believed education could offer her people hope and a future. At the time of Pauahi’s death on October 16, 1884, her estate comprised some 375,500 acres of land assessed at about $474,000. Her will establishes the Kamehameha Schools and her lands and property endow the schools.
Three traits that both leaders have in common is there pride, they both took pride in there leadership and had a huge impact on their people. Another trait is their intelligence. Pauahi thought that education was the key to reviving hawaiian culture which is what Kamehameha Kapalama is teaching us. Pedro I was Portuguese and thus suspect to Brazilians, especially after he signed a treaty of peace with Portugal which left unresolved some basic issues concerning future relations between the two countries. The last trait that they have is how determied they are Pedro had to deal with challenges from revolutionaries and insubordination by Portuguese troops, all of which he subdued. And Pauahi was determined because during her times of struggle, she never once gave up.
