1. Demand meaningful reform of the OHA/DHHL so that people don't die of old age waiting for a land allotment
2. Insist that the lackluster Hawaii public education system do a better job preparing all Hawaii's children
I think these are excellent suggestions.
If the protesters manage to stop the TMT, what will they get? A feeling of victory that will last a few weeks, then fade like last year's Super Bowl winner.
OHA is managing land for the Hawaiian people. If the protesters work to get that land released they'll have a home or a homestead.
Kamehameha schools (Bishop Estate) is one of the largest non-profits in the US. Work with them to fund a series of Hawaiian charter schools in every town across the state.
