E Komo Mai

At first, the need was to bring kupuna home from around the world, so many were treated with disrespect and bundled together in bags put on shelves or glass containers. 20 years later, with the rise in development so came a rise from our own kupuna. Now there is a need to Malama and care, in Hawaiian it is a sign, walk lightly, take baby steps, appreciate what we do have for we are only on an island with limited resources. It is with these limited resources that we return to because they were the resources of our kupuna. We relearn in the process the value of our resources the way our kupuna valued the ʻāina, with great care, respect and a responsibility to malama. E holomua kakou e Hoʻomau o Na Malama I Na Iwi Kupuna.
