Send us a textWhat's up to my marvelous monk seals and halcyon hoary bats! (Hawai‘i has no native land mammals save for the diminutive Hawaiian Hoary Bat, an endangered, reclusive and rarely seen creature.)Welcome back to the BNP y'all, and man do I have a stellar episode on offer this week.  I'm incredibly excited to introduce to the BNP fam Elijah Kalā McShane, a Kānaka Maoli  (Indigenous Hawaiian) speaker, poet, educator, and student of Hawaiian history and consciousness. Elijah was kind enough to jump on the pod, calling in all the way from Oahu, to share with us his insights into the real deal Hawaiian history from the Hawaiian perspective, as well as to discuss the significance and cultural context of the ongoing struggle for Hawaiian Sovereignty. Elijah also describes the crucial importance of decolonizing the spiritual and connecting with one's  ancestors.  This episode is Part One of my conversation with Elijah. Part Two will drop next week.
