Lā Kū‘oko‘a (Hawaiian Independence Day) overview of the importance and recognition in which Hawai'i was acknowledged as a Sovereign Nation by the British and France in 1843. "Paradise" is often imagined through ideologies that can be noted as "other-wordly" in a religious sense to a place that is filled with "magical" innuendos. Often malihini and visitors from across the world use such terms as "paradise" to describe Hawai'i as a place of wonder that is inviting and is not filled with capitalistic endeavors from outside developers. While Kānaka Maoli on and off island may have a different perception about paradise, we unpack these ideologies from different perspectives of Kānaka and generational locals who understand Hawai'i as home (and maybe paradise).
