Received this email from the Hawai`i Cultural Foundation this morning. -Admin
Aloha Kakou,
Our apologies for the last minute notice, but this opportunity presented itself within the last few days and we felt it important enough to organize and share with our members.
The Hawai'i Cultural Foundation cordially invites you to attend a free discussion on current issues facing Native Hawaiians with representatives of Ka Lahui Hawai'i, a sovereignty initiative formed in 1987, which proposes a nation-within-a-nation model of self-governance. Issues to be addressed will include the sovereignty movement, the Akaka bill and the first meeting of the United Nations Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues.

Tuesday, May 21, 2002 at 7 p.m.
