I can't verify this right now as I saw it during the live broadcast and I was busy with other things, so I may well be incorrect, my apologies if so, but one of the protesters at the summit ceremony made it clear they weren't native Hawaiians. Maybe it's in the link Opihikao provided, but can't check at the moment. That particular protester actually said that the native Hawaiian priest (I think that was the word she used) conducting the ceremony was upset because of the position the protesters had put him in.
I just wanted to add this because my impression over the years has been that the majority of true native Hawaiians have never been against the TMT project.
