It's About Nationality, Not Race
Today, there remain ongoing claims and discussions about restoring the Hawaiian Government that was deposed on January 17, 1893 and replaced by the Provisional Government of Hawai#699;i, later the Republic of Hawai'i, then annexation and statehood.
The Hawaiian nation was overthrown … not the Hawaiian race (it was a constitutional monarchy, not race-limited.)
ETA: omit #699 in Hawai'i
I disagree. While the Hawaiian Nation was a multi-racial all-inclusive constitutional monarchy, the current Hawaiian soventry is all about Race.
Kamehameha Schools, DHHL, well just about everything Hawaiian now a days is race only and exclusionary.
