The Wrongful Occupation of Hawai’i

Join us for a screening of Noho Hewa: a documentary film about the illegal occupation of Hawai’i on Monday, August 12th at 7pm in Conference Room A, below the main foyer of the downtown Salt Lake City Public Library.

In the Hawaiian language, hewa means “wrong” and noho means “to occupy”. This documentary is a contemporary look at Hawaiian people, politics and resistance in the face of their systematic erasure under U.S. laws, economy, militarism, and real estate speculation. It is a raw, unscripted story that makes critical links between seemingly unrelated industries, and is told from the perspective of Hawaiians.
