this protest on Mauna Kea has drawn world wide attention. it’s all over the place and now the people of Hawaii are finally coming together to put a stop to a project that shouldn’t have been approved in the first place.
i was never an activist, nor a protester. i’m usually an observer. and what i’ve observed all over the world in the last 30 years traveling is kind of sad. i’ve seen it with my own eyes how money and greed has gotten the better of people and places. i’ve seen islands destroyed, countries divided, natives getting kicked out, and locals getting overruled and treated like shit by governments and big corporations. so when this TMT project is happening right in our beautiful Hawaii, i think it’s time to speak out. it’s time to get together and stand our ground. i’ve been seeing more and more people fed up and taking action into their own hands. it seems to be the only way these days. if the people don’t speak out, our sacred lands will be gone before you know it.
the Mauna Kea protectors are rock solid. they are protecting some of the most sacred grounds in the world. in the small picture, you might think they are only doing this for the Mauna, but in a bigger picture, they are actually doing this for our world. they are doing this for everybody! they are letting the world know that it’s time to protect our sacred lands. it’s time to put a stop to all the money and greed going around. speak out, band together, and protect the sacred land. i’m hoping the TMT project gets stopped, and i’m hoping other money making projects like this will get stopped elsewhere in the world. it’s time to give the people back the power. the Hawaiians and protectors up Mauna Kea are not protecting the mountain for money, they are protecting the money for the future generations. and that’s something i can totally respect.
sorry, just had to get that out because i feel like if the people protecting the Mauna wins, the whole world wins. and i want to whole world to win!
