I like how everyone joined together and they all poured their hearts out when singing and they all joined together and people were crying because they knew what it meant

I like how everyone poured out there hearts into this and i like how everyone knew what was happening and wasnʻt there because they were told. I like how everyone cared for what had happened 125 years ago. it is sad how our kingdom was overtook by the illegal forces of the Americans. she was a composer even though she could not see the outside world. she was held hostage in her own palace! I like how not everyone there was Hawaiian and other cultures cared that our monarchy being annexed illegally. she was a proud Hawaiian and we will never forget her external legacy of her music which helped others stand strong in their roots.

Today I had saw the joy of everyone uniting as one.  I saw that people were coming together as one. As I saw those people singing I even wanted to join in. I felt proud to be there as a Hawaiian at Kamehameha. WE all didnʻt march for no reason we marched as one together.   I also felt very pround for the  hole kingdom  that the flag was raised.  Queen Liliʻuikalani made a very wise dission to give up the thrown for her people. I wouldnʻt think that

Today was a day that is really special not for only  me, but for our lāhui. It is a day to reunite with our lāhui so that we can  thank Queen Liliʻuokalani for all that she has done for us. She loved her people very much and she didn't want them  to be hurt, she wanted her people to be safe and last long. Everyone there felt proud to be a HAWAIIAN.
Queen Liliʻuokalani made a wise and very loving decision to give up her thrown so that none of her people would get hurt. So on this day, the Hae Hawaiʻi was brought down and the American flag was put up 125 years ago. Many, many years later, people notice what she has done for us. Even though she couldn't stop the Americans from taking over her thrown, she did everything she could to help her people.
We wonʻt be able to change the past, but we can make an effort to reunite and to be one because one Hawaiian canʻt make a big difference, but many will. She should recognize this KOA ALOHA ʻĀINA WARRIOR for all that she has done for us. Because of her, our sovereignty will last for a long time. ALOHA ʻĀINA!!!

Today was a day that was made for one purpose. It was a day to reunite us as Hawaiians, and we all shared one common goal...to remember what our Queen did for us and the love that she shared. We all loved her and want to thank her. She didnʻt want blood-shed, she didnʻt want her people hurt, SHE WANTED her Hawaiian Kingdom to last long and always be connected and united. I know I will always remember this day and never forget the feeling I felt when the Hae Hawaiʻi was raised and when I felt the connection to my ʻOhana. This day was a day that no one will forget. This day was one that will always be in our history. I felt PROUD to be Hawaiian and I always will be. I will never forget Queen Liliʻuokalani and she will always be in my heart and will be the Queen of our Kingdom forever and ever. The kanaka of this ʻāina will always stand up for her and never forget the Lokomaikaʻi she shared and gave. "Throw the ʻopala from the garden of your heart and let only the golden blossoms of aloha grow there. Live AlOHA"

Today was a very important day in Hawaiian history because this is the day that the Hawaiian kingdom has been overthrown. Today at the march we were there for one reason and one reason only which was to honor our beloved monarch Queen Liliuokalani. Just to see everyone their surprised me because I didn't even know that this many people still cared about our culture. Once that American flag went down and the Hawaiian flag went up it gave me a feeling of pride for our culture and I'm pretty sure everyone their also had that same feeling. And when we sang it just blew my mind to hear it, I never got the sense that it was loud and unnecessary, I got the sense of people uniting and being proud of the culture, proud that they are a kanaka, proud that the high Hawaii is returned in it's rightful place. I am proud to be apart of an Ohana of kanaka.

Today was a very special day because today was the day that Queen Liliʻuokalani and the Hawaiian kingdom was overthrown. I saw unity when everyone started to sing. People did not march for anything. I think that everyone marched for a reason. She really cared for her people. On the day of the overthrow Queen Liliu`okalani made a decision to give up her so that none of her people had to shed blood.  I saw unity when everyone  came together during the march. I think  one of the really special parts when they raised the flag. I think that it is really special because I think that it should be there. I think that everyone noticed it and were proud to be Hawaiian and we should not be part of the U.S. I think that one of the most important parts is that everyone were patriots. I think that everyone were proud to be there and were there for a reason to be here. I saw unity when everyone chanted the same songs. It had  harmony and it sounded like everyone new the words.I also think that one of the special moments is that everyone had the spirit to come. Everyone were proud to be there. Even people who did not know the song, they still chanted with us.

Today I saw Unity when Everyone was singing and being cooperative with each other. I also saw Unity when people started singing and other people joined them to carry their voices. I felt proud when the High Hawaii was raised. I also like how  Kamaka said that when people marched they didn't march for anything but for a reason and that stood out to me.

I felt proud when the people sang their ho'okupu I felt connected to my roots and connected as a big Ōhana that also showed me unity. The thing that stood out to me the most was that everyone that was there had taken time out of their own to do whatever, instead they used all that time to give to the Queen. I also thought that it was important to do the march because it was a time to see friends and family also like a family reunion.

All the happiness made me overwhelmed because everyone was having a great time. I saw that all the people there respected the Queen so much. This was a very important day to our Lāhui that many of the people came to be with each other to give love to the Queen.

Today was a very special day because our Hawaiian kingdom was connected and united. One act of love I saw was when everyone was marching down to the queen's palace. When we sang mele and oli we were respecting Queen Lili'uokalani. We aslo gave aloha when we gave our ho'okupu to her window where she was imprisoned for 8 months.When the hae Hawai'i was raised it showed unity between our queen and her people.A feeling that I had was proud to be Hawaiian

Today was a very special day because today was the day that our Hawaiian kingdom was overthrown by the U.S. Some acts of love or kindness that I saw today was when we were all marching down as one and we were all in unity. We were standing tall and proud. After this day it made me feel that i am proud to be a Hawaiian because of the actions of our Hawaiian people. Just like our Queen who forgave the people who locked her up in her own room waiting to die. Our Queen didnʻt want any war or any bloodshed. She wanted her kingdom to be safe. Instead she took the beatings for her people.

Another moment that touched me was when they put the american flag and put up the hae hawai'i because it was telling people that this is our kingdom and nobody can take it away from us.

Another moment was when we were marching it didnʻt feel like I was walking with strangers it felt like I was walking by family because we are all related through our hawaiian blood.

Today was a very special day because it was the day that Queen Liliʻuokalani 👸🏽 and the Hawaiian Kingdom was overthrown. She cared for her people and their rights, so she gave up her power by making a big agreement to give her sovereignty to the U.S people in order to avoid bloodshed. This amazing event brought the Hawaiian Community together to celebrate the day for one purpose and that purpose was the day of the overthrown of the Hawaiian Kingdom and the Hawaiian Monarchy. This day was a way to describe our culture to the public strong, proud and honored.

The concept that was most important to me was the time in the 1930ʻs when the U.S people took down the Hae Hawaiʻi was the time in 2018 when we held our Hae Hawaiʻi high up to the heavens where our kūpuna could feel our spirit of that day. This concept made me feel special, made me feel mixed emotions and made me feel proud of my culture. Proud to be Hawaiian. This concept touched my heart and everyones elseʻs because before she died she everyone looked at her as a role model, a soldier and a leader.

Another concept that I think really touched our hearts was when the parade came and started marching, chanting, shouting and holding sign and pictures that described this day in the 1930ʻs. As we walked down the pathway that lead us to our Queen so that we could sing to her to pass on the legacy onto the future generations.

I learned something today, Itʻs to be selfless not selfish because like Queen Liliʻuokalani did, she cared about her peopleʻs rights, concerns and intrest. Instead of her own because it was her kuleana her responsibility to care for her people. Not for herself.
That impact can really effect everything upon us because till this day she is still living in our hearts, our minds and our souls. She still touches our hearts till this day but not for just me but for every Hawaiian in the world. Hawaiians should know who our Queen is and what she did for us. Even though she is not alive and well today. When we walk on the sacred grounds of Queen Liliʻuokalani you can hear her sweet voice singing the songs she wrote while she was imprisoned in her Palace. Even though you canʻt see, hear, touch and smell her doesnʻt mean she is alive in spirit, doesnʻt mean she is our blood and it doesnʻt mean she is still in our blodd, our minds and our souls because today we are forgetting our Hawaiian Cultures History. Love Queen Liliʻuokalani and the Hawaiian Kingdom.  IMUA
❤️  👸🏽  🇬🇧

Today 125 years ago, The Hawaiian monarchy got overthrown by the Americans. She cared for her people very much and gave up her power to the U.S. One moment was when we were all walking down the parade, I made me feel connected and proud to be Hawaiian. One other moment that made me proud was when the Hawaiian flag was put up on iolani palace. Queen Liliuokalani was very important to her Hawaiian people. They tried to restore the Queens power but failed. We sang one of her songs near the window and to me it felt like we were praising her for what she did.
Another moment was when we were singing. when we were at her window, We sang Aloha "Oe. Singing it made my think about how hard it was giving up her power to the Americans.

Today was the day that queen liliʻiokalani was imprisoned and the day she gave up her power so no blood was shed. That was a truly kind and loving act that the queen did for us. I saw so many Hawaiians here all in one day, that made me very happy. A moment when I felt love for this day was when they raised the Hawaiian flag instead of the American flag. That moment meant so much to me. Today I walked with so many other Hawaiians and that showed unity, one person may not make as much as a difference but 1,000 probably will. This experience made me feel proud to be Hawaiian. I felt honored to walk with these other Hawaiians. Even when Queen Liliʻuokalani was imprisoned in her own palace she wanted to forgive the people who did this! That was an act of love the queen did for us.

Today was a very special day and today I witnessed a lot of Hawaiians that joinded together as one nation to remember our Queen and how much she loved us and all Hawaiians. The Queen gave up her position as a monarch and she gave up the Hawaiian nation just so that there would be no bloodshed and that everyone would be safe and not be hurt.

Another moment was when the Hawaiian flag was raised over Iolani Palace and a lot of Hawaiians were there to witness it. I thought that was special because that is were the Hawaiian flag is supposed to be. Also today the Hawaiian kingdom was annexed and our Queen was overthrown.

# data[].attributes.body
The Queen made a decision to give up the Hawaiian Kingdom so that none of her Hawaiian people would die, Queen Liliʻuokalani did this even though it was wrong. One special moment that had happen was when the Hawaiian flag was risen over Iolani Palace this touched me because the Queen was in prisoned in her own Palace for something that she was blamed for. One act of unity and love was when we all sang Kū Haʻaheo. This showed unity and love because we sang in unity as one Hawaiian Kingdom. This shows love because we chanted to The Queen to show our love for her and that today was a celebration for her .

# data[].attributes.body
Today was a very special day because today was that same day when Queen Liliʻoukalani and the Hawaiian Kingdom were betrayed and overthrown. She was very forgiving even though she was overthrown. She was so selfless at that time and instead of thinking about herself she was thinking about her people and if they were going to be okay. This legacy that she passed down on us will never be forgotten and her spirit will always be praised 🙏. She touches everyones hearts till this day not for  just one person. But for every proud person on this earth. When we walk on a ground that will never be forgotten. You will still hear her sweet words flowing through our veins and into our souls.

One act of love that I saw today was when I saw the fire that started the march. It really showed that everyone in that march knew that they were proud to be Hawaiian. Everyone in this march knew that this blood that we have in us is not ordinary. The blood in our hearts shows the life of our Kūpuna and our Queen Liliʻoukalani.

Today was a very special day because today was the day that Queen Liliʻuokalani and the Hawaiian kingdom was overthrown. She made a powerful  decision to give her sovereignty to the U.S. to avoid bloodshed. This brought all of us together to form one community. All of us even the public shared one common goal to celebrate the Hawaiian flag rising over Iolani Palace again. This really touched all of our spirits and hearts because before the Queen died she had love for the land, her people, and the Hawaiian kingdom. Even though not everyone felt the same emotions we still came together and united.

One act of love that I saw today was that all of us were chanting almost the same songs. When we were all chanting it was like the perfect harmony and it sounded like we all knew the words. Also, when each class was holding the hae hae Hawaiʻi and it was flowing in the wind it was showing that we love being Hawaiian and that we are proud to be to celebrate our cultures. The queen also made our lāhui better because she didnʻt want her people to die, she was imprisoned in her own palace, and she also didnʻt let her guards and Hawaiian people fight against the U.S. military because she knew she didnʻt do anything wrong.

This experience made me feel proud to be Hawaiian, and strong. I had a better understanding because I knew what had happened to her and what she had to go through. When their was nothing to be done she would never give up and that is why she will always be remembered and her legacy will be forever cherished and remembered.

On the day of the overthrow Queen Liliu`okalani made a bold decision to give up her so that none of her people had to shed blood. This act brought us all together and united us as one. Thousands came to feel the feeling of being a true Hawaiian. This feeling really touched my heart. I knew that the Queen did this because she had a love for her land, people, and her kingdom. She did this for her people and for the U.S too. Her people didnʻt have to shed blood and the Americans didnʻt lose any men. Whether we were protesting or enjoying we all were there for the same reason... to unite as an Ohana and remember the day that the Queen made her bold decision to yield her throne.

One act of love that I saw was that many of us were holding a hae Hawai`i which was showing that we love our nation... the nation of Hawai`i.  I also noticed that the Queen had so much love for her people that she one left her throne so that none of her people died, two she was imprisoned in her own palace, and three she made her people stop fighting. She did this all for the better of our lāhui.

It was a very special moment when  the Hawaiian flag was raised because there where all these Hawaiians that came together to see it get raised. It also showed that people cared not only are school but others schools and people

Queen Liliʻuokalani made a big decision to give up her Kingdom so that none of her people would get hurt.  One act of unity I got to participate in was being in the march and having us all chant together. Because when all of us were marching and chanting together it felt like we were more powerful and stronger together as a group. I also think that when we raised the Hawaiian flag it showed unity because when it was being raised people were all cheering and everyone was so happy.
One act of love I got to participate in was when everyone was raising the Hawaiian flag. Because that showed that we were proud to be Hawaiian and we had respect for our Queen. It also showed we had love for our Hawaiian culture and for the kingdom.

On this day that the Queen made a very important decision one act of unity that sunk into me was how all these "strangers" came together sharing one common feeling. This feeling was of the life and health of our land, kingdom, queen, and people of Hawaii. This was a way to make peace and rememberence of how Queen Liliʻuokalani cared for her people and would do anything for them which is why she choose to give up our kingdom so that we would not have blood-shed.
One act of love for this huakaʻi I noticed was the love of the Queen she had for all people. ne piece of evidence was that in one of her songs that she wrote while in-prisoned in her own palace was that she was praying to God to forgive the people who have done wrong to her. She also showed her love to her people by  not starting a war and getting her peopleʻs lives risked which also had to do with unity.

# data[].attributes.body
One act of love that I witnessed today was proud marching. We were energetic with life to support Queen Liliuʻokalani because she gave up her throne for us to . And the kindness and generosity that Queen Liliuʻokalani gave to us.

This march is an act of love because this is a march that shows our support and love for our AMAZING Queen Liliuʻokalani! If we do not support her and we just think that "Whatever we can always do that!" well you are wrong because  if she never did this we would never get our equal rights. This is one of my most interested act of love!

This experience made me feel that if we bring us all together than thinking of war we can rally make our QUEEN happy. And how to support my comment is because in her imprisonment she wrote songs that meant I forgive those who hurt us. That is why we should not act with anger but kindness and forgiveness.

I also felt that when we can let the past go behind us and just the happiness inside of us help to forgive than to use war as revenge which is mostly what is happening today. If we just use our actions and not our mouths to show why we are at war and fighting then what is the point. What is the point of fighting if you do not know why? Until then I bid you a Good after noon .

One act of love and unity that I was able to participate in was the march.  It showed that we loved our Hawaiian nation and its people and we would do anything to become united again.  This march moved me so much because it really showed me how powerful we all are together.  All of those who participated in the march chanted to connect with our kupuna.  We chanted for our Hawaiian nation, for the people who fought for it, and Queen Liliʻuokalani.

Also, I felt that we showed love and affection to our Queen when we sang to the room in which she was imprisoned.  I felt proud of my school and I when we did this.  Participating in this was a great experience.  Once again, I felt connected  to my land, my culture, and my people.  This is just one way that we show our Hawaiian pride today.

This experience made me feel powerful, strong, and most of all proud.  I really enjoyed this because I knew what the Queen went through... and yet, through the darkest hours, she found the light.  When nothing seemed to be there for her, she always found the beauty in life.  Because of this, we pass on her legacy.  He Hawaiʻi au, mau a mau!
