[Bbm] Aloha, my name is Mailani Maka'ina'i.
I'm here today standing in front of Iolani Palace
with all of my kupuna, my ancestors.
I'm standing here for [N] all of the Po'e Hawaii,
Kanaka Maoli, the Lāhui, every island, Hawaiians who cannot afford to live here
in Hawaii.
On this heavy day of January 17th, 122 years ago in 1893, our Queen and
Hawaiian Kingdom was overthrown by the provisional government with the
Hawaiian's military.
And I would really like to share this mele called He Mele Lāhui,
written by Queen Lili'u in 1866 at the request of King Kamehameha V.
This is actually Hawaii's first [C] national anthem.
