We've had quite an extensive last several days.
As you know on Wednesday we had the "ceded" lands information session. Tane wrote a response in the comments about it. I don't agree with everything Tane wrote, but mahalo nui for the commentary.
On Friday, Coalition organizers Jocelyn M. Doane, Derek Kauanoe and Davis Price, accompanied by Leimomilani (Jocelyn's sister) and Tasha (Jocelyn's cousin) canvassed the Papakolea Homestead to hand out flyers and information about the "ceded" lands case and on the march and rally in Waikiki scheduled for this Saturday, January 17, 2009.
On Saturday, Davis, Leimomilani and Tasha went to Waimanalo.
On Sunday, Davis and Derek went to the homesteads in Kapolei and Tasha and Leimomilani were in Waianae.
All together, the group distributed more than 400 march/rally flyers while going door-to-door and speaking with homesteaders who were either out in their yards, in their carports, or just pulling into their driveways. We expect to do more community outreach this week and are looking for people who may be interested in helping us with that.

Since our 1/7/09 "Ceded" Lands Informational Session, a lot of people have inquired about former Governor John Waihe'e's statements regarding the issue. The video is available on viddler, google and veoh. We're also working towards making a more complete video of the evening available online. Mahalo nui for your support and patience.
