Sheʻs not living in the past but synthesizing it with the modern times. Due to her grandmother, the Hawaiian language has been revived, and is the only indigenous tongue in the U.S. where you can get doctorateʻs in Hawaiian. Their family help bring back the hula, and serve as a guide to many other indigenous cultures in reviving their language. Her family are also the high priest and priestesses of Pelehonuamea.
best part of this was the segment about "total spirtual exile" .... very moving statement. I think she captured the essence of the true importance of preserving Hula and the Hawaiian language in that one short line.
Great ! ALOHA I love Hawaii and the culture and history of hawaiian people. That`s the reason I posted HAWAII 1987 INTERVIEW on RUclips. If you check it you can see how many brazilian people praise Hawaii ! MAHALO ! Thank You ! Muito obrigado ! From BRASIL
They are the caretakers of the chants and hula of Pele. Not all of us turned our back on the old religion. The religion is connected to the land, and she is merely stating that we need to coexist with the elements. Our entire culture was based on religious functions. Without the religion, the culture will not remain pure. The Samoans still tattoo and do traditional dances, so are you stuck in the past? If we are too westernized, then are we really Polynesian?
"every movement is paired with a movement in Nature" --- the most simple yet awesomely powerful description of Hula movements!!!!
