this is what many of you don& #39;t learn in school. during queen liliuokulani& #39;s reign, the hawaiian kingdom was actually illegally overthrown by white colonizers from the US. she was imprisoned against her own will.
she wrote a farewell song called aloha oe, which we use to this day to sing farewell to loved ones. the song is very important to hawaiian culture. https://youtu.be/Y1bIxMYPlas ">https://youtu.be/Y1bIxMYPl...
these are the lyrics, you& #39;ll see why it& #39;s so important to us. colonizers took native hawaiians land. even now, in 2020 rich people are making their personal homes, making NATIVES! lose their own home and land
i have nothing against cherry bullet. they have done nothing wrong. but i want them to change the name of their song. please try mass email their company. the fact that they& #39;re using the title is rather ignorant so i wish that the company will learn and change the name.
MASS EMAIL PLEASE!!!! https://twitter.com/sunnytrivia/status/1290804071293571072?s=19">https://twitter.com/sunnytriv...
adding, i also realized they literally sampled the song? this is ridiculous
adding on, i saw a video where one of the members were taking of a crown or something? i really hope she wasn& #39;t indicating the last queen being dethroned.
