the comments are supposed to be on the VIDEO..yikes...im not from the islands, but was married to a local and my kids are part hawaiian, or "hapa" and i really think the embracing of the culture comes from the inside.

I'm so gonna watch one of these festivals in person :) wouldn't mind getting some personal lessons either ;) haha very well done!! I find guys quite sexy doing this kind of stuff despite the costumes i think they're hot!!!

actually i think haole really means "no breath"; its a racial slur in some minds that's true, but I love Hawaii too much to let that bother me. the truth is the missionaries from Boston DID steal most of the Islands and my mom's family was a part of that. I can understand the anger and I might feel the same way if I was a Hawaiian by birth.

...I know that 'haole' traditionally means 'outsider', but it is also a racial slur. I don't think that you want to be calling yourself a haole.

Good kane kahiko is pretty hard to beat. Mahalo for posting. I was there in person, and I have the DVD, but it's still great fun to watch a quick shot here on YouTube. Mahalo nui loa!!

hawaiian's (meaning citizens of hawaii) come in all skin tones and ethnic origins from around the world.
