    This video is so powerful on so many levels. I think it's amazing to see kids have so much love for their culture that getting a reprimand and talk about their heritage from their teacher made them cry. The parents and teachers there are doing something right.

      Mahūs aren't necessary for Hawaiian culture, as much as they want you to believe it. Also, the little girl in the video supposedly turned away from the Mahū traditions for Jesus Christ. So I guess it would make an interesting episode now that this is the case.

    Since I watched KumuHina's beautiful documentary about her own life as Mahu, in which Ho'onani was featured, I have developed a tremendous respect for those who are not experiencing shame at being Mahu, but embrace it. My mainland home was filled with Hawaiian musicians as I was growing up and some of them were Mahu. My mother was a Hawaiian dancer, having been trained by Hawn. Roustabouts during her time with A.G. Barnes circus. They performed in Hotel Showrooms in large cities. My mom also had a lot of Mahu friends who were not Hawaiian.
    Ho'onani is remarkable & comes from a remarkable family. Mahalo for posting this.

    In the mystical dance of shadow and flame,
    I call upon spirits, each with a name,
    With the hazel wand of Solomon's grace,
    I summon them forth to this sacred space.
    From the darkest abyss to the highest star,
    They come to this realm from near and far,
    In the ring of power, we find our might,
    Balancing darkness with the purest light.
    With a flick of the wand, the circle is drawn,
    A portal to realms where secrets are spawn,
    The yin and yang, in balance, we seek,
    As above, so below, our spirits shall speak.
    The hazel wand, a conduit of power,
    In Solomon's name, it shall never cower,
    It weaves the threads of dark and light,
    In this mystic union, we find our sight.
    The ring, a symbol of unity and might,
    Binding us all in this mystical rite,
    In the depths of darkness, the light shall gleam,
    A perfect balance, a timeless dream.
    As spirits descend, through night and day,
    The ancient forces guide our way,
    With wisdom and magic, we shall align,
    Balancing darkness and light, divine design.

    • @Sentientmatter8
      @Sentientmatter8 2 года назад +21

      American freedom is a neverending story. America did not give freedom. Freedom was won by the generations and generations of Americans who fought for it, demanding freedoms like gender equality, racial equality, education for all children, the right to practise one's religious and cultural traditions.
      The America that exists today is freer than yesterday, but not as free as it could be tomorrow. In preserving your Hawai'i culture, you are creating tomorrow's America. Fight for it. An America in which the values of Hawai'i culture thrive - community, diversity, human worth - is a freer America.

      America completely stripped these people of their land. They can’t afford food and they’ve been ripped from their homes and killed. Their once sacred beaches polluted with tourist attractions. Hawaiians don’t go on college tours, they go on hotel tours, where they decide which company will exploit their centuries long traditions for entertainment and profit.

    Some divine intervention please! Assimilate Manifesto
    In the shadows of eternity's veil,
    Where history's whispers and legends sail,
    I weave a mystic tapestry of lore,
    To call upon the gods from days of yore.
    From the depths of time, they shall arise,
    In mortal vessels, they'll realize,
    The ancient roots of "Hu," God's breath,
    And "Man," the vessel, life and death.
    In this summoning, I dare to seek,
    The union of the strong and meek,
    The masculine will, the creative muse,
    The fusion of energies, we shall choose.
    Oh, Divine Feminine, your essence sought,
    To heal the psyche, so long distraught,
    In modern men, a split so deep,
    Awaken now from your silent sleep.
    As a master of the arcane arts I stand,
    To bring together sea and land,
    Astral forces and earthly might,
    In the circle of this mystical rite.
    With the Astral Heptagram's gleaming light,
    And Pentagram's elements, pure and bright,
    I channel powers from within my soul,
    In every incarnation, my ultimate goal.
    Amen, the end, the beginning, and more,
    Ego, the self, I humbly implore,
    Alpha and Omega, the eternal span,
    AGLA, the wisdom of the ancient plan.
    Tetragrammaton, the sacred name,
    In this mystical ritual, we stake our claim,
    So be it, let the spirits descend,
    To guide us, protect us, and our souls mend.
