Should also teach children 80-90% of Native Hawaiians died from exposure to diseases brought by Europeans between late 1700s-early 1900s. Those same diseases are now preventable by vaccines but remain a threat if vaccines are not routine (see 2019 measles outbreak in Samoa and 2023 in American Samoa).

Pt 1 The Living Histories of #Lahaina
"Through the settler colonial history of what is called Lahaina, the #KānakaMaoli are resilient in survivance and now more than ever are organized in working to ensure that #decolonization and healing takes place as part of the recovery from the #LahainaFire."

"Lāhainā was ... an area famed for its lush environment, natural and cultural resources, and its abundant water resources in particular."
"Fresh water began to be diverted in the late 1800s. First came the [colonial] sugar plantations— then pineapples— and later resorts and other developments."
"'So part of what's happening ... right now is plantation disaster capitalism at its worst...' [said Kapuaʻala Sproat, an expert in Native Hawaiian water rights]"

Noelani Ahia, a Kanaka Maoli activist, describes the community's reaction to the destruction of Indigenous cultural documents, art and artifacts. “In the blink of an eye, it was burned to the ground, and all of those things were lost,” says Ahia. She also describes mutual aid efforts now underway and notes, “The people on the ground know what the community needs.”

"Native Hawaiians organize aid for Maui fire victims as government lags"
"The entire operation buzzed with urgent efficiency. But this was not the National Guard, or the Federal Emergency Management Agency, nor state or local government. This was scores of residents, led mostly by native Hawaiians, who had battled immense grief and unreliable communications to coordinate a large-scale disaster relief effort..."
