Mauna Kea - Wikipedia
- Mauna Kea is a dormant volcano on the island of Hawaii. Its peak is 4,207.3 m above sea level, making it the highest point in the state of Hawaii. Most of the volcano is underwater, and when measured from its underwater base, Mauna Kea is the tallest mountain in the world, measuring over 10,000 m in height. Mauna Kea is about a million years old, and has thus passed the most active shield stage of life hundreds of thousands of years ago. In its current post-shield state, its lava is more viscous

One of the most legendary Kanaka Maoli leaders of our time who was one of the 38 Kupuna arrested on the frontlines at Mauna Kea on July 17, 2019. She was the first elected Kia’aina of Ka Lāhui Hawai’i who helped author the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples. She spoke on the Palace grounds with her sister Haunani-Kay 27 years ago and we are honored to have her as a speaker on January 17. 2020. #WeAreNotAmerican #Onipaa2020

The Automatic Meteor Observation System — or AMOS — was installed on the roof of the control building of the Submillimeter Array on Maunakea in September 2018 but was not activated until October this year because of weather delays.

I am amazed that these students lasted so long. They really elevated the issue of UH supporting the TMT to another level.
Be there to do protocol, mahalo these ikaika students and support them one last time 5pm UH Wise Field Protocol on Friday 12/20/2019.
The Thirty Meter Telescope occupation is finally coming to an end.

On this Saturday December 21st, the day that marks the Winter Solstice, we will be debuting the music video for my song ‘Mana Wahine’ - a dedica...tion to all Kia‘i wahine standing to protect Mauna a Wākea and the rights of Mother Earth here and around the world. In the next few days, I will be sharing stories of the inspiration behind this song that was written back in 2013 after meeting my dear soul sister Ngahuia Murphy of Aotearoa. I will also be highlighting a few of the women in my life who have guided and shaped me on my journey. A deep Mahalo to @jalena.kl and @ambiespino of @breaktide for creating such beautiful and loving space to carry out the filming of this dedication and to Valen Ahlo for the incredible drone footage. Mahalo piha from my heart to everyone who helped and supported the blossoming of this video. Truly grateful. ⠀
⠀
When we stand together heart to heart, womb to womb, intention to intention all the grandmothers in our lineages rejoice. We are what they prayed for, what they always hoped for us to be. Oh the strength and grace we are destined to pass down. Mana wahine. ⠀
⠀

Hawaii County Council just postponed Bill 115 to the call of the Chair. It would have allowed up to $10 million state funds to be funneled to County for up to 5... years for Police actions related to Mauna Kea and the TMT. Earlier Res. 403-19 accepting $10 million for activities related to TMT construction on the mauna was defeated 9-0. Action will be taken next year to accept state money up to the amount already incurred by Hi. Co. Police, but sever any commitment to being TMT's police force for the next 5 years.

“FOR THE LĀHUI”
By: Josh Tatofi Jt
Hālau: Kilohana Japan
•
With everything going on at home in Hawai’i, with my time and experiences on the mauna, I had an opp...ortunity to create Hula to send a message to the people of Japan who were watching. Our beautiful home is celebrated all over the world but the ugly truths of what our people have to endure is never exposed or talked about. People in Japan have been to thousands of Hula shows but I hope tonight, when they watched us dance, they could feel a sense of hurt, sadness, pride, anger, frustration, beauty, resilience & strength. I hope our performance made some sort of difference in the eyes of the audience that they could remember when they went home and started to ask questions, started doing research and started to ponder what our performance was really about.
•
This Hula was created from the depths of me, for the love of my home and people and “For The Lāhui”.

Pu'uhonua o Pu'uhuluhulu Maunakea was live.
Today the Hawaiʻi County Council voted unanimously to reject Resolution 403-19 and Bill 115 today. They were to decide whether to accept $10 million from the St...ate as a grant for “expenses incurred by the Police Department in response to protest activities related to the construction of the Thirty Meter Telescope.”
Those testifying asked crucial questions: If the current costs total $4.7 million, what is the County agreeing to do with the remaining $5.3 million? Where did this money come from? What process is being used to provision these funds and to accept these funds? Where is the transparency in this process?
Sound answers never emerged.
In response, the Council decided to send the State a strong message. They are not a rubber stamp. They will not advance plans that do not take into account the will of their citizens.
If the State would like to try again, they would have to restart the effort and follow a much more transparent and community-driven process.

Just finished scanning through Ige’s supplemental budget:
DLNR - $3.2 million added to FY2020 for law enforcement expenses for Mauna Kea. Translated it means they are going to increase the number of DOCARE officers on the Mauna and their overtime.
Attorney Generals Office -$3.2 million added to FY2020 to fund 17 more Full Time Positions. Translated it means they are going to try to criminally investigate every single Kia’i leader out there.

Department of Defense - $3.8 million added to FY2020 “to assist the DOD Army National Guard to cover costs related to public safety operational requirements.” Budget description cites that the National Guard has already been providing support to local law enforcement. Translated it means the State will continue to use National Guard against peaceful and unarmed protectors on Mauna Kea.
