Lately Kalani has been writing to me to tell me some things. Of course I laugh. He even continues to mention "Molokai pule oo" which is Molokaians praying for their enemies' deaths. Then the people of Kau. Some of whom killed some of their oppressive chiefs. Then some Mauians who pushed some Oahuans off of a cliff. So I laugh about it

Especially when someone recently told me that I am "un-Hawaiian." Un-Hawaiian? I am very much Hawaiian LOL but that's only if one knows about Hawaiian history so that person's statement only makes me laugh. It only shows his ignorance about Hawaiians. Then again ignorance is a sign of racism. In this case racism against Hawaiians.

We are "un-Hawaiian" because we don't follow their perception of a Hawaiian. That is, we aren't docile, submissive, uneducated creatures they'd want us to be. So yes as you said, racism when it comes down to it.
