"Inspired by the recent events on Maunakea, some of Hawaiʻi’s most notable and accomplished recording artists and composers joined their voices to record “Kū Haʻaheo E Kuʻu Hawaiʻi.” Composed by Hinaleimoana Wong, this mele has become a rallying call for our lāhui to aloha ʻāina. “Kū Haʻaheo” will be included on a soon to be released album entitled “Kūhaʻo Maunakea” – a compilation featuring 18 new compositions documenting the events and swell of Hawaiian community unity around aloha ʻāina associated with the Kū Kiaʻi Mauna movement. The album will be available digitally through iTunes in late September and 100% of all sales will be donated to the Hawaiian Unity and Liberation Institute (HULI), which provides logistical support to the protectors on the frontline of Maunakea. Donations to HULI can be made at https://actionnetwork.org/fundraising...."

Woeful indeed are the heartless foreigners *Stand tall my Hawai’i Band of warriors of my land The new dawn for our people of Hawai’i is upon us For my nation I give my all so that our legacy lives on Where are you soldiers of Keawe Along with those of Maui and O’ahu Unite, join together with those of Kaua’i Marching alongside the descendants of Ni’ihau Move forward young ones and drink of the bitter waters Be fearless, steadfast for there is no turning back Let’s press onward straight on the path of victory Alas! Woeful are the heartless foreigners! Be honored always oh beloved descendants of the land Let us wear the honored ‘a’ali’i of our beloved land Paddle on in our pursuit of civil justice Until our dignity and independence is restored Credits in Video Description
