On January 17, 1893, the Hawaiian monarchy ended in a bloodless revolution. It was one of the darkest days in Hawai'i’s history and January 17, 2008 marks the 115th anniversary of the overthrow. At 3:00 that afternoon, Sanford Dole and his supporters took over the offices of the Interior Ministry and began to formulate plans to organize a provisional government. At 6:00 that evening, the Queen’s ministers recommended to her to surrender. They believed that resistance would provoke bloodshed and that the U.S. forces were too strong to overcome. But, it was the Queen’s idea to surrender pending a settlement from Washington. She believed that through intervention by the President and Congress of the United States she would be reinstated as the rightful ruler of the Hawaiian Kingdom.

On the grounds of ‘Iolani Palace, thousands of Hawaiians waited as the sun slowly set. From behind the glass-paneled doors of the Palace, emerged Queen Lili'uokalani. In a carefully worded note of protest, the Queen said to her people:

“I, Lili'uokalani, by the Grace of God and under the Constitution of the Kingdom, Queen, do hereby solemnly protest against any and all acts done against myself and the constitutional government of the Hawaiian Kingdom by certain persons claiming to have established a provisional government of and for this Kingdom...Now, to avoid any collision of armed forces and perhaps loss of life, I do under this protest, and impelled by said force, yield my authority until such time as the Government of the United States shall, upon the facts being presented to it undo the action of its representatives and reinstate me in the authority which I claim as the constitutional sovereign of the Hawaiian Islands.”

The Queen continued:

“Now, my people, hear these words of mine that I say to you in our dark hour. Hold yourselves up high and be proud. For each and everyone of you has much to be proud of in yourselves and in your people. Hold fast to that pride and love you have for your heritage and your country. Yes, your country. For your nation—‘Onipa..a. Hold fast!”

The Queen then turned and walked into the darkness of the Palace.

Later that evening, a provisional government under Sanford Dole quickly set up its own forces at the Palace. Dole signed two proclamations, one urging supporters to furnish the new government with arms and ammunition; the other declared martial law and suspended the writ of habeas corpus.

We have all witnessed another dark day in Hawaiian history, a show of the tyranny and oppression ruling the Kingdom of Hawaii. This Superferry should not have been given this special consideration to sail without an EIS.

"My Grandfather survived on this earth without using anything that did not go back into the earth. The whole world could learn from that." --Floyd Westerman, SIOUX Our grandfathers knew how to live in harmony. They did not create poisons or technologies that destroyed things. They did not make their decisions based on greed or for selfish reasons. They did not take more then they used. Their thoughts and actions were about respect. The Elders conducted themselves in a respectful way. We need to consider our actions around respect for Mother Earth.
