Colonial powers see Native people as expendable livestock, as cowish
critters collateral with stolen land.
Selfish history teaches of
discovery - ignoring colonial expansionist genocide.
Hostile
miscalculations by Capt. James Cook in Hawai'i brought death at the
Battle of Kealakekua on 14 Feb 1779. This defeat of British Empire
expeditionary forces led by naval officer Cook is misreported, censored
and downplayed by imperial histories, but some Hawaiians recognize a
significant victory. Locals must somehow resist when aggressive
intruders break the peace & local protocol.
How we view history is
important!
