A testament to Hawai\u2018i and our right to  self-governance.  Originally La Ho\u2018iho\u2018i Ea was a week long annual  celebration marked by Hawaiian patriotism and all the best that our  islands have to offer including music, crafts, games, food and  community.  It was celebrated for 50 years until, in 1893, Hawai\u2018i once  again came under illegal occupation, this time by America.<\/p>\n<p>Banned  throughout the kingdom in the year 1893 along with other national  holidays (i.e. La Kuokoa &#8211; Hawaii Independence Day ).  La Ho\u2018iho\u2018i Ea  experienced a rebirth in 1975 when Hawaiian national, scholar, and  patriot Dr. Kekuni Blaisdell resurrected this holiday to honor and  celebrate our continued independence and sovereignty, despite a century  long American occupation.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Ua mau ke ea o ka aina i ka pono&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The sovereignty of our nation is preserved through righteousness.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/lahoihoiea: We encourage the observance and celebration of La Ho&#8217;iho&#8217;i Ea everywhere Hawaiians tread the &#8216;AINA&#8230; Please join us, Sunday July 31st 2011 ( @ Thomas Square in Honolulu), to celebrate and honor our ancestors, our history, our sovereignty and our unending fight for justice.
