Hey Peter, I'm so glad you are doing the Hawaiian series. I watched a YT vid about a cruise ship that travels within the islands and it talks about the crew. I don't believe there is any historical value to the video, but I was surprised to learn that people would spend the money to cruise inter-island. I was saddened by the fire that hit Lahaina, especially all the historic buildings that were lost. There is new growth on the damaged Banyan Trees, it looks like they will make a complete recovery. I live in MA but have vacationed in HI.

Wouldn't it be nice if we the people had a way meaning ''us'' stay in control of these important things in our lives. There's more of us and we as a team should come together to better handle and control our most important things. We have a democrat and a republican party manipulating everything and they are all making more money than they should be. George Soros and others should be stopped!! We know they have a master plan to take all they can leaving the rest of us in the gutter's.

Maybe I'm missing something here. In the last year I've heard nothing but bats#it crazy, far-right conspiracy theories claiming that these rich liberals want to steal the land in hawaii from native Hawaiians. But apparently no one can get around the 99 year land lease agreements. That's the one important detail all these far-right nut jobs seem to leave out.

I love this guy’s philosophy, “people move here and try to change it exactly to the place they came from.” A warning of all states. If you move out of your state for better opportunities, leave your old place behind. You moved for a reason, don’t make the reason be you.

Humans should look at each other that way: we may be unique but when working together we can contribute our special characteristics to produce something great! Another great video.

It is true about listening and looking for the omens or ancestors or amakua. When my boyfriend and I were out fishing between Maui and Lanai, we accidentally hooked a whale, probably on a barnacle. The whale pulled our boat backwards until my boyfriend was able to unhook us. Then the whale spy hopped in front of the boat, checking us out. We bowed in apology. My boyfriend was so overcome, that he proposed to me. I should have figured out that the whale pulled us backwards, and said no. Instead I said yes, thinking of the awesome thing we experienced. The marriage did not work out.

Hey Peter, just wanted to say I really appreciate the unbiased viewpoint you take into conversations, whether it is politics, religion or social topics. Feel like it’s rare in todays society and people only want to associate with their ‘tribe’. There is no gotcha moments on your channel or trying to belittle someone’s opinions. The way you converse with people allows them to feel comfortable and coherent in articulating themselves. Through your channel I am able to listen to contrasting viewpoints to my own, without feeling like an agenda is being pushed on to me. Keep up the good work 👌👍

The philosophical perspective from this man warms my heart to know that he wants his dream to become a reality and the indigenous people of Hawaii deserve it❤

I like this guy, stating to make the right decissions for the land, I wish more people thought like him.

Kanaka Maoli Wisdom: "There's too many people who move here but don''t live here. The question is, if there are no Hawaiians, how can this be Hawaii? They just sleep here. Because if you live here, you would then protect this place that you love." As the locals say, 'Flown, not Grown'. Crown Law will always own the land!

I LOVE your videos Peter, I learn so much! I can’t travel much due to being in an electric wheelchair 🧑‍🦼 & ventilator & oxygen ect.. and you allow me to see the world 🌍! Keep it up please 😊

This guy is awesome, so wholesome, wise and humble

I’m always looking to see when new content is posted on your channel and was super excited you’re doing this series on Hawaii and appreciate this episode to show the struggles experienced by the people of Hawaii and the overthrow of the kingdom there. Many people visit Hawaii without appreciating the history. I am happy to hear the legal transfer of land ownership back to Kai’s family that had been taken many years ago and Alika’s passion for encouraging the people there be reliant on the land and less on imports. I look forward to the other videos to come in this series!

Peter, After watching many of your videos over the years, I now see your purpose. You have been chosen to communicate the needs and initiatives of the grass-roots people of America, for us to come together for the greater good. The billionaires, investors and politicians do not have America’s best interests at heart or in their plans. Keep going my friend.

Farmers are the true the Backbone of America 🇺🇸 😊

Hawaii ain’t America. That’s for you Haoles to think out there but it’s a different world here in Polynesia (Hawaii). We Polynesians before anything & we will make you learn that when you are here. We hold true & strong to our culture & traditions of our Hawaii. 🤙🏽

That sugar mill was dope as fuck "They all shrugged their shoulders, they have no plan." Thank you to he OG for tsking us on tour, thanks to Peter. I also love the land where i live. It is not having its invasion of people who know nothing about us, they want to change it to where they just escaped. I loved this video.

So glad you covered this issue of locals in Hawaii and outside investors who don’t live and care about Hawaii, but just own property and homes just for profit or for fun

Yes, a widespread problem, also here in Scotland and Wales.

Uncle Alika is a massively respected elder who speaks the truth from all true indigenous peoples heart ❤️ 💯

Another Winner here!!! This guy showing you around is Incredible. Completely in tune with his own nature and possibly all of ours. I am a Cultural Anthropologist and this is great stuff here. This is right up there with Titus. This guy is a historian and a great guide of Hawaii!

I have lived here in Maui for 25 years. This man speaks wisdom. Love it. So cool this see this beautiful island from your eyes. I don’t know how you found your contacts for these videos but it is excellent! Great work representing Hawaii the right way. Mahalo nui loa for this gift ❤

Thank you so much 🙏 My family is in Hawaii and I love everything about the culture, and always love learning more.

Peter, I can’t thank you enough for doing this series. I’m originally from Hilo on the Big Island. I’m Filipino/German but my culture is Hawaii through and through. I still speak pidgin when I am with my family. This video brought up so many feelings inside of me. I look forward to the rest of the series 🤙🏼

nah. You're part of the problem. Too many Filipinos running around claiming to be Hawaiian. You will NEVER be Hawaiian

Excellent information! Good to see local native people fighting for their rights and land, never give up!

Peter….I’ve enjoyed your videos for years and I love how you bring us all into wherever you are through just simple heartfelt curiosity and connecting with the people on the ground. That is powerful! Keep it up……you are on to something!!!!!!!

Peters videos give me hope in humanity. As always, thank you sir!!

Very, very good, Peter. You gave them a voice. So much needs to change. These are good people. I would love to see young Hawaiians follow up and regain what's been lost to them.

Thanks for the inside view of Hawaii. When you see reportages about Hawaii in TV, they often show only the sunny side .(surfing,sunny beaches etc.) I like your style of telling stories ! Greetings from old Germany. 🤙

Hawaiians are now my favorite people on planet earth. So down to earth and passionate about their land.

the variety of US cultures is so awesome, thank you Peter for your contribution in documenting it

Justice for Lahaina!!

​@@anuragnayak8456Beautifully said! I love that people from around the world are watching and loving Peter's videos. We learn so much from his travels. I see Peter as much an educator as a journalist doing great things for the global consciousness. People from all over the globe brought together for their love of people, different cultures and the challenges they face in their daily lives. If not for Peter, how else would we ever know about issues the mainstream news does not report. Thank you Peter for all you do to bring awareness and educate. Pulitzer Prize worthy content here. 👏👏🤗🤗

That girl is very familiar with the "Hawaiian Ice".

A very wise man. Love listening to him.

Maui is so beautiful and the people deserve so much more than what they’ve got now….I just got back from ten days on the island and the heaviness was palpable. Such a cute man sharing his culture and beliefs and way of life w you and all of us. Thank you again for another video. Mahalo 🤙🏼

I'm a huge fan of yours Peter ! keep up the good work dude.

I visited Maui in 2019. I was aware of the general history of Hawaii but not to this extent. THIS WAS EYE OPENING.
