I think that America is quite similar now to how Britain was when it colonized many areas including America. Getting out from under British rule is the whole cause of this celebration and yet now we are not too different. I don’t know too many specifics about early Britains management of resources, or policing in dealing with native people because we never really went into detail about any of that. But I do know that the redcoats, somewhat like the police and soldiers of the British army would occupy the place Britain was controlling. The redcoats were all horrible people who would abuse, kill, and rape the people from the land they tried to occupy, this is why the second ammendment says, “No Soldier shall, in time of peace be quartered in any house, without the consent of the Owner, nor in time of war, but in a manner to be prescribed by law” (Constitue Project).
Constitute. (n.d.). Retrieved July 07, 2020, from https://www.constituteproject.org/constitution/United_States_of_America_1992 The way the empire of America occupies the nation of Hawaiʻi, could be connected to the way the British occupied America. Our Kahiau project issue, rising cost of living is connected to the UN sustainability goal of sustainable cities and communities. The way America occupies Hawaiʻi affects this issue. Since we are a part of America we have to live under the president's rule which in some cases, like now, is detrimental to our nation. Also because Hawaiʻi is very far away and different from America, some laws that are passed at the federal level aren’t applicable to here and there isn’t much coverage on problems Hawaiʻi is facing.
