My Uncle is 100% Hawaiian. Most of his family is Hawaiian & Hawaiian Filipino. They all love the way the USA increased their wealth & lifestyles since we took them as a State. They know of no Hawaiians that want to go back to the old days of grass huts. Many Hawaiians have become millionaires from land developments, jobs & tourism there.
Someone is just trying to agitate Hawaiian sovereignty & racism for personal gain.

Hawaii has a unique history, roomy. It was a kingdom when the US acquired it as a territory, and when the US made Hawaii a state in 1959, there was a mass death among Native people in sorrow over their loss. There was a distinctive group of "real" Hawaiians, with roots in the islands, a shared culture and a language that are all but gone now.
Before I was born, my parents spent a year in Hawaii as teachers. I have photos of the grass hut they lived in, and their students are beautiful little kids who are distinctly Hawaiian looking -- but if you visited the islands today, you'd be hard-pressed to find such people. I have photos of my folks on Diamond Head beach and there are no buildings, no lights, no people except them....when you compare that to the noxious Las Vegas style development that has gone on since that time, it is soul crushing.
I have never been there, but these are changes that took place during my lifetime. Doubtless, there are Hawaiians my age who remember them with great bitterness. Some Native people seek recognition from the US as a nation such as other tribes like the Cherokee have been granted, while others seek independence for Hawaii. Whatever happens, the US virtually obliterated an entire race of people in one generation -- and that injury is doubtless deeply resented.

Is it true that Hawaii is the most racist American state, given that the Aboriginal peoples hate both Blacks and Whites equally, allegedly?
Of the 30 states I have visited, I think Georgia is the most racist.
Parts mebbe, not the whole state. Atlanta is one of the least racist cities in the US, IMO.
