Ewa elementary’s logo is a plantation smoke stack.
It’s school bell is a bugle playing “taps”!
It’s majority Filipino/Hawaiian with white/Japanese leadership.
An SNL sketch of a colonial school meant to keep brown people in the workforce/military and out of leadership.
“Tradition” isn’t an excuse. This needs change.

Amazing news from the Guyana Prize for Literature! ANTIMAN was on the shortlist for nonfiction and CUTLISH won SECOND PLACE in poetry! To be seen in Guyana (and to have both of these books acknowledged) is a dream and I am so humbled!

The U.S. Navy and its leaking Red Hill facility – and the continual desecration, pollution, and bombardment of lands occupied by the U.S. military – remain the biggest threat to Hawaiʻi and all life on the islands.
Hawaii EMA@Hawaii_EMA
No threat to Hawai'i: News reports indicate a ballistic missile was launched from North Korea toward Japan, and has now fallen into the Pacific Ocean. Authorities in Japan alerted the public and advised they take shelter. At this time NO threat to Hawai'i is anticipated.
