I do feel that in the modern age everyone needs to have their voice heard. Hawaiians do have to compete with westerners for land here in Hawaii. We also have to protect our Native Hawaiian identity. The moment everyone gives up their native identity is the moment that the culture dies. We must stay steadfast in our Hawaiian identity in order for the Hawaiian language and culture to survive.
I can use my privilage at Kameahemah Schools to protect my Hawaiian identity as well to learn and grow for the future. I feel that everyone should try and protect their identity as it is who they are. If your culture dies, then you will disappear with it. I think that everyone should just be themselves as it is the easiest way their culture and identity. This is very important as it is a very good way to raise our Lahui.

1. Overall, I think that I would rate myself a 4 for overall growth in quality of work because towards the end I feel that I worked super hard.
2. I would rate myself a 5 for digital application as I think that I did really well with it, however, I didn't really learn anything new. I was already good with digital application. 3. From the beginning of the course to the end, I feel that my independence and was a 3 as I found myself asking my friends a lot of questions as well as sending as lot of Reminds. 4. A super valuable skill that I learned is where many countries all over the world are and I can at least narrow any country down to what continent it is located in. 5. I think that the best learning comes from making mistakes and if we forget the mistakes of the past, we won't improve for the future. 6. I think that this Kahiau project has been a valuable learning experience as it has helped me learn a little bit more about the current and past problems of the world. Comparing America to past world super powers, they all have one thing in common. They all tried to expand their resources and influence through conquest and colonization. The only thing that differed in past wars and conquests was what was used. Overtime, the world super power shifted from having the strongest warriors, to having the newest weaponized technology.
Technically, the Hawaii islands are still a territory as the land was illegally taken. This plays into colonization and industrialization of our Kahiau Project. Today the US is still taking Hawaiian land as they are now building a telescope on sacred burial ground. The only land that has been given back to the Hawaiian people was infertile land that no one wanted. The main reason that Hitler was able to get power was from propaganda. He gave the Germany people someone to put the blame on and it was the Jews. Hitler said he could save Germany from the their problems caused by the Treaty of Versailles. Because everyone hated the Treaty of Versailles, it gave them a reason to be on Hitlers side. Had the Treaty of Versailles been different and Germany was content with the treaty. It would not give the people a reason to stand by Hitler.
The Treaty of Versailles was a large cause of this Kahiau Project. Many of the problems that we are facing in today's world is caused by the Treaty of Versailles. Factories used during the War are largely causing global warming problems as similar factories are still being used today. WW1 and the Treaty of Versailles greatly impacted Hawaii as well. Hawaii became a military base and target during WW2. None of this would have happen if the Treaty of Versailles was a little be more fair towards the Germans. |
