Crucial for all of the Hawaii people young and old, to hear and listen to how Hawaii came about, as you will not hear about this in school history books, have to know your roots, makes you more appreciative and respectful of where you came from!
Watching you from Alabama.Sinclairs are a piece of work, Native Americans were sold out with liquor, beads, and some got guns.Even cheated the landowner and shortchanged them.WOW the Japanese pilot had a luau the contracted workers who were translators got some Karma.Interesting history.The more you know💫Love Uncles ghost stories and history lessons😘
So you have the Kawanakoa Hawaiian family recently inheriting 11 billion dollars and they didn’t buy back Niihau and Lanai for Hawaiians to live free ... They could afford to buy the islands with 1/10 of their money but didn’t do it .
Why buy something you own? Haole can create FRADULENT BUSINESS? THE STATE OF HA WA I'I HAS BEEN HIJACKED & PERVERTED. GOVERNMENT / REALESTATE BUSINESS IS NULL SINCE OVERTHROW. 🫵😊
if they did buy it back, u think we get to live the way our ancestors used to?? evict the military and make them pay back everything they destroyed, which is a lot
Very excited to hear these stories. When I first got out of college I worked as an editor for a Hawaiian documentary company that got permission and filmed on Ni'ihau. Sadly, I didn't go along for the shoot, but being able to see that footage and hear from the Ni'ihau people directly is something I'll never forget. The documentary, for those interested, is called "The Hawaiians: Reflecting Spirit"
Aloha brother! Thanks so much for this awesome accounting of the incredible history of Ni’ihau. It is the most detailed sharing of the of the struggles and triumphs of the island that I have heard. Mahalo 🤙🏻
Bradduh I'm trying to understand and maybe lost in the content, why was it sold and sold to a foreigner? Right now across the water on Kaua'i you have foreigners buying the land of my roots. Turning them into their private bunker. Lana'i already gone. I fear the same for Kaua'i. Who is selling out?
@@mikeh-p7q Land of my roots was once sacred. But now it is a playground of the rich foreigners. Most do not give a kukai about the history. But they use the greetings Aloha and mahalo and wear the culture and heritage around their necks as facades. But yet have no cae when it comes to exploitation and commercialisation. Shame on the ones who sold out
Hawaii Kings didn't gain much through taxing Niihau and instead chose to play foreigners' game of land sale and took the money instead... the result of trying to look and live like foreigners.
Mahalo for sharing. There is a lot that have been left out and I just want to point out the most important one to the Ohana Ni’ihau out of everything that was mentioned in the video. And that is the Ohana Ni’ihau’s aloha For Ke’Akua or love of Ke’Akua (God.) is the number one thing that is most valuable to us. We worship no other Gods but one, Iehova. The next two are aloha Ohana (love for the Ohana) and lastly, aloha ‘āina (Love for the land.) I along with my Ohana Kelley of Ni’ihau are so fortunate and grateful for the Robinson Ohana for their continuous commitment, dedication, and support in the preservation and the perpetuation of the Ohana Ni’ihau culture, traditions, Language, and it’s way of life. Ni’ihau wouldn’t be Ni’ihau today had it not been for their tremendous outpouring effort, stewardship and aloha for the people and the island in wanting to maintain the islands heritage and its legacy. So we Mahalo Ke’Akua for the Robinson Ohana and continue to pray for them to mālama Ni’ihau for the Ohana Ni’ihau.
there's a barge that goes from Pakala, Kauai to Niihau brah. Some of my classmates at Kekaha School were from Niihau and they didn't look like they were controlled by the Robinsons. What U talking bout?
@nomad74777, Damon Rydell, yes, it is common knowledge that the purchase of Ni'ihau cost the Sinclairs $10,000. Negotiations for the island was initiated in September 1863, brokered by the Minister of the Interior, G.H. Robertson while Kamehameha IV was King. The Sinclair family initially offered the Hawaiian government $6,000. Because Kamehameha IV passed away that November, and the deal was completed and the island was sold in January 1894, it was approved by Kamehameha V. The purchase price of $10,000 is common knowledge, but we left that information out because, within the context of this video, it almost sounds as if the amount of money validates the treatment that the native Hawaiians received.

1:48 Connected in a way I've seen very few other people in history be. Residual energy of Lemeria (?) helping to create that bond. I belive a large part of it rests below us (or the islands themselves may even be the remaing land.) It's just a theory of course.
My husband is a urban search and rescue team captain for the fire department and knows Mr. Robinson personally so he has been there many times and they don't have running water or 🔌 at all they speak only Hawaiian from what my husband says my husband bought a house for his brother and his family many years ago on Kauai so 😮😮
Haku haku from the land of the Chumash the owners of the land from Los Angeles in the south to Paso Robles in the North. These stories are of the utmost importance for our children especially, the haole' have ruined our indigenous world as much as they can but we are recovering. Tani he'(thank you)
All the Ali’i look white… when British men came to Hawaii with money they wanted to marry Ali’i wahine… like my ancestors. That’s where the first Hapa Haoles on the islands came from. The first Hapa Haoles in Hawaii were descended from Ali’i
Got to visit Niihau in 2010 via the owner's Helicopter, back then we were told the owners keep this helicopter for emergency medical evacuations for the Niihau residents. They raise support to keep the helicopter maintained by allowing silly tourists to take day trips out to the island, you could choose a hunting trip or a scenic trip with beach landing. We picked the beach landing but the pilot also showed us the wildlife from the air, super fun! Got to see plenty of great white sharks, a pig, and plenty of other various mammals kept there for hunting purposes. We did not get to talk to the residents but did see a couple of them, we landed at the beach seen in the video right behind Lehua islet. While I was walking out on the rocky and slippery shore line I slipped and fell right on my okole! The trip was required to have 5 people as I recall, but the other group did not show up so the owners decided we could go anyway, just our little family of four - amazing adventure!! ALHOA & MAHALO, HAWAII NO KA OI, UA MAU KE EA O KA AINA I KA PONA
But on that particular Hawaiian 🌺 island 🏝️ called Niihau are there any signs of a Secret Cave where there might been a hidden treasures like Gold⚱️and Diamonds💎 on that Hawaiian 🌺 island 🏝️ of Niihau in Hawaii?
Is your name ZOOLIE or ZOOLOU? Did you drive taxi on Kauai back in Mid 80"s? And did you Know old man NORM who lived on corner of Ocheon and wamai river?
Some of my children attended Ke Kula Niihau o Kauai in Kekaha in and around 2002 or so. They could speak hawaiian but did struggle with the Niihau dialect.
When I was first introduced to the Hawaiian ways and thier understanding of the unihipili. I was so captivated that I've made it my goal to learn everything i can about thier believe system. With what I've learned I've been able to apply to myself and my life. All i can say is that i can't imagine going thru life without this knowledge. Thank you for the video i always love hearing stories of old Hawaii
I’m Tongan and can’t stand what had happened to these poor Hawaiians 😒these are our brothers and sisters! I’d be damned if that happened to my country.

I agree that the haoles are indeed vampires. However , is it the holes fault that the kingdom of Hawaii was in the stone age up until the 17th century or so which made them easy prey for the Americans. If it wasnt the USA , it would have been China, or Russia .
good. I ha heard for years about the hawaiian man that was shot but killed the shooter. I think it is also interesting that K1;came fom the almost most young island. TY
Barges from Kauai bring supplies regularly. People who live on the island have family and commute to Kauai often. It’s not some closed off place where the residents never have contact with the outside world.
Only a couple dozen people live there now. The ohana will return to visit but most now live on Kauai’s west side. They go back to be counted as residents but most do not live there.
The original 'Native' Hawai'ians did not own the Land, the Land Owned the People, same as on the Mainland and most indigenous cultures. The concept of 'Land Ownership' was introduced by the 'Western Civilizations' but was very quickly embraced by the Hawai'ians where the privileged upper caste were granted titles to large amounts of 'Free Land'. They understood the value of a quick profit for easy-money and 'sold' their land to more intelligent and industrious people that turned the land into vast fortunes for many generations. Meanwhile, the greedy and short-sighted Hawai'ians quickly ran out of land and spent their money unwisely. And now they claim their land was stolen and want it back... The USA did NOT steal their land, they sold away their country. By allowing Missionaries to bring diseases and religion to their paradise, they lost everything. By choosing to not fight for their Kingdom, it was taken like a ripe fruit by a monkey.
Interesting. I have had conversations on this very issue with locals. They are not happy with the dialogue. But from what I researched this seems to be true. So someone correct me if I am wrong.
Just like the natives of the continents, Hawaiians killed each other over the ownership of the land (just like everyone). They most certainly knew what land ownership was.
@@AHLUser White colonizer descendant trying to justify his ancestors wrongs by victim blaming a total and ongoing genocide of both Turtle Island natives and Kanaka oiwi. So disgusting! 🤣
@@Pickiekittieskoonz yes, I realize that, but the oral tradition of sharing history is called “talking story.” It was not my intention to diminish their history by referring to it in such a way.
Many sacrifices were taken from the "kauwā," they were considered the lowest class of people consisting of servants, slaves, and outcasts. They could never move above their class and they could never marry anyone from a higher class either. As far as being happy or honored to be chosen, stories tell of kauwā running from the mū, the body catchers, whose job it was to find the sacrifices. So they probably didn't feel to pleased about it. Other sacrifices were kapu breakers, prisoners of war, and enemies of the ali'i.
@@MysteriesofHawaii Thank you for responding. "Outcast" could mean someone not perfect..mentally deficient or physically impaired? Either way, I would still run from the mu. The idea of human sacrifice feels like some residual influence from a Mayan culture.
@@JJ-gm4ck so if upper Europe countries like the Scottish,Russians,Germans etc. had GUTS! Then they would of stand up to their tyrants instead of fleeing to Great Britain,being an eye sore to the Queen and then being put on the mayflower and send overseas. That’s da kinda guts Your talking about?? Just ask the Indians on their land to the blacks in Africa if they had guts too?
I wouldn't say that most living things don't want Hawaiians to succeed, but yes it's true, many haoles came from many places and told plenty lies to the Hawaiian people. They took the land from the Hawaiians , they bastardized the culture for the benefit of the tourist industry, they rerouted the streams on Kauai so they could irrigate the surface industry. The west side of Kauai is like a desert today because of this . Waimea town, Hanapepe, Eleele, were all lush and tropical 200 years ago, but George Norton Wilcox came to Kauai and literally changed the climate so that his crops would flourish, and they did!

The landing people have not been under someone’s control and LMFAO. They are guests and they can leave anytime they want. It’s privately owned no matter how much Democrats want to claim ownership of somebody else’s privately owned properly. It would never happen.

You cannot buy something that’s NOT FOR SALE! Who sold it to begin with?
No , actually the Hawaiian Monarchy at the time sold Niihau for 10k dollars . You can blame Kamehameha IV for that .

That’s da kinda guts Your talking about?? Just ask the Indians on their land to the blacks in Africa if they had guts too?
Social media made every gutless lying backstabbing wanna be’s a key board hero!
Easy to talk about guts when one wasn’t there!
I wouldn't say that most living things don't want Hawaiians to succeed, but yes it's true, many haoles came from many places and told plenty lies to the Hawaiian people. They took the land from the Hawaiians , they bastardized the culture for the benefit of the tourist industry, they rerouted the streams on Kauai so they could irrigate the surface industry. The west side of Kauai is like a desert today because of this . Waimea town, Hanapepe, Eleele, were all lush and tropical 200 years ago, but George Norton Wilcox came to Kauai and literally changed the climate so that his crops would flourish, and they did!
The robinsons own them when disasters happens the fire department can go on there but have to leave immediately after because only true Hawaiians can go on the island my husband has been on there many times they don't have even electricity on the island
The robinsons own the island now they have
owned it for years

The landing people have not been under someone’s control and LMFAO. They are guests and they can leave anytime they want. It’s privately owned no matter how much Democrats want to claim ownership of somebody else’s privately owned properly. It would never happen.
