Some Native Hawaiians disapprove of 'Aloha' movie title

HONOLULU (AP) — Some Native Hawaiians disapprove of the name of a movie filmed and set in Hawaii, saying that titling it "Aloha" is a disrespectful misappropriation of culture and simplifies a word that's rich with meaning.

The Cameron Crowe film starring Bradley Cooper, Rachel McAdams and Emma Stone, opens Friday, with a screening in Honolulu three days before. The concerns are based largely on a trailer that depicts a military-themed love-story that appears devoid of a genuine connection to Hawaiian culture.

In the Hawaiian language, aloha is not just a greeting or a word to convey love. It has other meanings including, compassion, mercy, grace.

"Aloha actually comes from two Hawaiian words: alo — which means the front of a person, the part of our bodies that we share and take in people. And ha, which is our breath," Janet Mock, a Native Hawaiian, said on her MSNBC Shift show "So Popular!" where she panned the title. "When we are in each other's presence with the front of our bodies, we are exchanging the breath of life."

The trailer is an example of "typical Hollywood," where "Hawaii is the verdant background for white fantasies," said Ty Kawika Tengan, chair of the ethnic studies department at the University of Hawaii's Manoa campus.

"It's been so appropriated in so many different ways — made into a commodity, made into a slogan," he said of the word aloha. "It gets so divorced from important indigenous Hawaiian context. ... It's romanticized, literally, into a romantic comedy."

They're just looking for an excuse. Bad white guys is a good excuse.

Lucylastic -> RE: News from the Society for the Perpetually Offended (5/25/2015 8:50:11 AM)


No, Obama does not want Hawaii to secede, only special privileges for Hawaiian Natives

For many years former Hawaiian Senator Daniel Akaka had been pushing a bill that would change the terms of the 1959 agreement that admitted Hawaii as a state. He wanted to turn a large portion of Hawaii into an Indian reservation. Akaka wants Hawaiian natives to have it all. More control over their own affairs, while receiving increased benefits from the US government, all while paying less in taxes.

Akaka retired in 2013, after spending 23 in the US Senate. His plan to create a giant Indian reservation in Hawaii is known as the Akaka Bill. It calls the proposed Indian reservation, The Kingdom of Hawaii.

This is where the confusion is coming from. The so-called Kingdom of Hawaii would not be a sovereign state. It would have the status of an Indian reservation and still be part of the United States. Much of Hawaii would remain exactly the same.


The Akaka bill is all about special rights and privileges, and more money, for Hawaiian Natives. Parts of the Ataka bill were passed committees in the House and Senate in 2009, but it has been dead ever since.

There is a movement supported by some Hawaiian Natives for their own independent country. However, the Ataka Bill has nothing to do with that.

Barack Obama has always supported the Akaka Bill. However, Obama is in no way endorsing the secession of the state of Hawaii.

There is an effort going on to encourage Barack Obama to bypass congress and enact Akaka’s plan through executive order. However, Obama doesn’t appear to be anywhere close to actually doing that.

From the same article I linked to above:

quote:



The title doesn't bother all Native Hawaiians.

"If you look at what aloha means, how can it be bad no matter how it's used?" said TV and radio personality Kimo Kahoano. "I think Hawaii is the best place in the world. And the reason is aloha."

Man, you really have no idea what Aloha means. It's easy to look at it academically, but Aloha is not academic, it's spiritual.

The movement is supported by many, but it is little fiefdoms standing behind this bloodline or the other bloodline. The government does not feel threatened by the movement because there is no solidarity. However, if or when the people unify behind one bloodline (the King/Queen ) the US government will react, most likely overreact.
