Snowing on the mauna, Poliahu i ke kapu Eō mai ‘oe.
I have nothing but Aloha for the new Keck Director who is local and from Waimea, but nevertheless the TMT will never be built on Mauna Kea. Please submit your testimony to let our voices and commitment to the protection of Mauna Kea be seen, heard and felt by all. Mahalo. Repost from @healanipale • YOU CAN STULL TURN IT IN LATE IT WILL BE MARKED LATE. Mauna Kea needs your help please submit testimony today to the University of California Board of Regents ACADEMIC AND STUDENT AFFAIRS COMMITTEE. They will be holding a meeting on March 20th to discuss TMT and Mauna Kea and the “progress” made with the Hawaiian community with the help of their Keck Director. Suggested testimony (say in own words): Aloha. Please divest from TMT. TMT will never be built on Mauna Kea. We DO NOT CONSENT. We are just as prepared to stop TMT in 2024, 2026 or any other time as we were in 2019, 2015, 2014 and every other time. Mauna Kea is sacred and we will defend it. Period. There is no “just and shared solution to the role of astronomy in Hawaii” that includes TMT. NO FURTHER DEVELOPMENT of Mauna Kea is possible. Now or ever. UC needs to respect Indigenous Peoples of Hawaii and all the lands it sits upon. UC should divest from this telescope entirely. Use the money to take care of its own people. Forget competitive science, and refocus on real learning and knowledge that does not require destruction of the Earth. Thank you for this opportunity.

Aloha Everyone, We all know the effort and energy it takes to make a stand in our communities . This is happening in Ka’ű tomorrow. sending Aloha from Waimea.
To all our wahine out there of all ages, we see each otherʻs efforts, work, commitment, love for what we do. We have compassion for each otherʻs pain, our hurts, our troubles and our challenges and we hold each other up in our celebrations, triumphs, accomplishments and achievements. Lift your head up higher, be brave…its not easy out there but if we have each other, we can do anything! Repost from @waterprotectorlegal • Happy #InternationalWomensDay. The Water Protector Legal Collective stands committed to highlighting the indispensable role of Indigenous women in our movements. Since time immemorial many of our communities have revered Mother Earth. Honoring Indigenous women’s stewardship of Mother Earth emphasizes the profound connection between women, particularly Indigenous women, and the nurturing and protection of our environment. We also honor the Water this Women’s History Month with World Water Day (March 22) approaching. While there are so many women, seen and unseen, throughout the world fighting for our Peoples, here are some Indigenous women doing the work for cultural survival, the Land, the Water, and our Peoples: 🌸 Pua Case @puacase 🌸 Jennifer Nez Denetdale @jenniferdenetdale 🌸 Berta Cáceres @lea.berta_caceres 🌸 Radmilla Cody @radmillacody 🌸 Francia Márquez @franciamarquezm 🌸 Kumu Hina @sharkgoddess808 🌸 Jakeline Romero Epiayu 🌸 Mililani Trask @trask4oha 🌸 WPLC Executive Director, Natali Segovia @nsegoviaesq Read about their work at: waterprotectorlegal.org/post/iwd2024 #LinkInBio As we celebrate International Women’s Day, let us reaffirm our commitment to amplifying the voices of Indigenous women and supporting organizations furthering the rights of Indigenous Peoples with an emphasis on environmental stewardship. By recognizing and honoring their contributions, we pave the way for a better future for all.
Repost from @echohawkd3 • Indigenous beauty. Wrote this for the two people that helped me learn to see my own beauty again. My sister Elisabeth Echo-Hawk Kawe @10degreesofchange and @charlieapok whose living of their beauty in their whispers of strength in my ear, their fierce advocacy, the mothering of their children and their ability to find beauty in all of creation continues to heal my heart. My fav line is callused hands, in it I mean working hard for the community and forming protective barriers of protection for them, these two carry this in their hands. Damn, I’m blessed❤️was able to bring them together to meet where Lis brought us into the fierce beauty of auntie @puacase , who also exemplifies this beauty. To my aunties and sisters, I love you❤️

At a gathering, placed our petition on the table and asked everyone to help us to reach our goal. Less then 10,000 to go to get to 500,000! Please sign if you haven’t, please share again and again! Together, we’ll get there!

Mahalo to @ucscmaunakeaprotectors for a well informed post. Please share and follow @mkea.info and @protectmaunakea for more information. Mahalo Repost from @ucscmaunakeaprotectors • Per a new NSF report, a path forward for the TMT has opened…but with competition. Under the new NSF review process, the organization will only fund ONE extremely large telescope project; either the TMT or the Giant Magellan Telescope in Chile. The organization and U.S Congress will make their decision on which project to move forward with in May of 2024. In light of these new developments, we must continually highlight the reasons why the TMT should NEVER be built on Mauna Kea, especially in light of alternatives like the GMT project. In addition, there is much work to be done to keep scientific personnel honest about their commitments to repair broken relationships with the Hawaiian community and create spaces where Indigenous Scientific Knowledge and Spiritual Practices are honored and respected.
