CULTURE AGAINST MAN x KAMEHAMEHA

Releasing Saturday, June 26thAloha kakou!By now, we all know that the demise of our entire Culture (including language, proper education, traditions and customs & knowledge of the land, heavens and ocean) was met when Hawai'i was "discovered" by James C(r)ook(ed) and his fellow Europeons nearly 232 years ago.
