Kaho'olawe Aloha 'Aina
Produced by the Protect Kaho'olawe 'Ohana, this documentary traces the history and activism on Kaho’olawe island, from ancient times through the years of ranching, U.S. military bombardment, and the modern-day struggle to stop the bombing and reclaim the island.
Kalani Queypo presented his short film 'Ancestor Eyes' and performed on the ukelele to start the evening!
