Waikaʻs Project
The two leaders that I chose to research for this project were Israel Kamakawiwoʻole and Suleiman the Magnificent. Suleiman the Magnificent was an emperor of the Ottoman Empire in the Middle East and was born in November 1494. He reigned supreme from 1520 till the approximate days he died September 5-6, 1566. His greatest impact was his expansion of the Ottoman Empire through conquest. The peak of the Ottoman Empire was during his reign. My icon that I chose for him was an Ottoman sword because of his dedicated work to expand the Ottoman Empire. On the other hand, Israel Kamakawiwoʻole was a Hawaiian musician who was born in Honolulu in 1959 and died in 1957. He was not a king, but rather a simple man who loved and led our people to a brighter future. He showed his love and courage through his songs encouraging Hawaiian sovereignty. His favorite instrument to use was his ukulele, which is my icon for him. Because of him we have his music today and the fire of freedom and equality burns ever brighter. On the left side of the poster are three western leadership traits that I think both leaders had in common. I chose courage, dedication, and assertiveness as my three leadership traits because both leaders were courageous in taking on their challenges, dedicated to their work, and let no one tell them what to do. The three red words on the right side are Hawaiian leadership traits that I thought these leaders both had. I chose mālama pono, naʻauao, and hanohano because both of them did things for a brighter future for their people and were very smart about how they planned to make that happen. This in turn makes both leaders worthy of respect and gratitude.

Chancenʻs Project
The two leaders I studied were Jahangir and Queen Liliʻuokalani. Jahangir, born on August 31, 1569, and died on October 28, 1627, was the fourth leader of the Mughal empire which was located in most of present-day India. The icon I chose for Jahangir was a sword because he had many military ambitions and was a capable soldier. Queen Liliʻuokalani, born on September 2, 1838, and died on November 11, 1917, was the last sovereign monarch of the Hawaiian kingdom. For her, I chose the icon of a protester wearing a shirt that says ʻOnipaʻa because she was the head of the ʻOnipaʻa movement that attempted to take back the sovereignty of Hawaiʻi. In red near the center of the picture, I wrote the three native Hawaiian leadership traits that both leaders possessed. I chose those leadership traits for the two because not only were they very courageous and just but they were also servants and did what they believed was best for their people. Underneath that text in white, I wrote the western leadership traits both leaders possessed. I chose those leadership traits because they were both supportive of their people and took initiative to carry out the things that needed to be done and fix the things that needed to be changed. Overall, Jahangir and Queen Liliʻuokalani were both prominent leaders who played a significant role in their empire and in the lives of their people.

Līhau's Project
The two leaders that I researched are Queen Elizabeth Petrovna and Haunani-Kay Trask. Queen Elizabeth was a leader of the Russian Empire from 1741-1762. She was born December 29, 1709 and passed away January 5, 1762. To become the empress, Elizabeth organized a bloodless coup d’état against her cousin Tsar Ivan VI. She restored her nation back to the way it had been when her father was ruler. Elizabeth was very popular with her people due to eliminating all foreigners from power and to her hatred of war. She founded Moscow University and allowed the arts in Russia to flourish. The symbol I chose for her is to represent her distaste for the death penalty. Before pulling off the coup d’état, it is rumored that she prayed before an icon and promised to abolish capital punishment if she came to power. Elizabeth kept that promise. Haunani-Kay Trask, the second leader I studied, is a Hawaiian rights activist, as well as a professor, political scientist, author, and more. She has brought awareness to the colonization of Hawaiʻi and the illegal overthrow. Trask has written about the negative effects tourists have had on our islands and the cultural exploitation due to the tourist industry, along with many other significant impacts. She was born October 3, 1949 and is 71 at this time. The symbol I chose for her is a sign that reads “ʻAʻole TMT” because, as a Hawaiian rights activist, she completely supports the protests against the thirty-meter telescope. The traits I chose to represent these two leaders are hoʻokihi, kūhaʻo, kuleana, vision, dedication, and assertiveness. These women fought for what they believed to be good for their nation, relying on themselves rather than others to make a difference.
