September is Hawaiian History Month! As we enter Kepakemapa we are excited to celebrate Hawaiian History Month and honor our kūpuna, aliʻi and culture. Why September you may ask? On September 2, 1838, Hawaiʻi's last sovereign Queen, Lili’uokalani was born. She was a woman of many talents, a skilled musician, an educated royal, and was known as a leader for peace and social justice. In the month of her birth, we're coming together to celebrate and honor Hawaiʻi’s Queen and recognize the numerous contributions of the native Hawaiian community. All month, we’ll be highlighting events in our rich history along with special virtual events being held online. Celebrate with us and our friends @hawaiiponoicoalition, @oha_hawaii, @iolanipalacehi, @kanaeokana @hawaiinuiakea, @liliuokalanitrust, @papaolalokahi, @olelocommunity, and the #departmentofnativehawaiianhealth.
