PRESENTATION OUTLINE
Hawaiian Islands.
Inspired the great films of
two Disney classics.
Lilo and Stitch and
the newest film Moana.
Both timeless and loved
There is a secret
It is not the paradise
you believe it is
A secret mission
Queen Liliuokalani
annexed from her throne
Who could have done it?
The U.S military
came and took office
Foreigners took charge
After the monarchy fell
Natives were conquered
The U.S flag flew
The Natives dismissed it and
they began mourning
Foreigners flood in.
Most interracial couples in the world live here
This opened the pot
the "melting pot" says Dennis.
The perfect new start
Competition came
Survival of the fittest
Supply and demand
Latson informs us
Its reported that tourist
are the revenue
The economy.
Business are reliant.
No alternatives
This is true but
the islands are exploited
simply for profit
Forcing the natives
to sell out and make gimmicks
of their rituals
Desensitizing
Practices that were sacred and had great meaning
Particularly,
Luas, once important for
honoring their gods
turned into a gig.
Simple entertainment for
tourist who pay
Timon and Pumbaa
I'm looking at you two
Shame on both of you
Mentioning wildlife
Forbes says environmental
conditions are poor
The living creatures
and their homes are soon to be
wasted away, gone
Plastic waste and trash
accumulate and destroy
all the greenery
Apologies come
a hundred years later
from Clinton and staff
Indispensable
yet handled without care this
home to millions
Territory to State
Representation present
Change for the better
Islands v Main Land
Relations between the two
A work in progress
