Subject:Testimony in SUPPORT of Ku'ulei Keakealani
To whom it may concern,
I write this letter in strong SUPPORT of the appointment of Ku'ulei Keakealani to the Cultural Resources Commission. Ku'ulei is
the descendant of generation upon generation of natives to this 'aina and continues to perpetuate our living Hawaiian culture.
She is an expert in the history of people upon these lands, Hawaiian cultural practices, and their connection to wahi pana
around the island. For decades she has been consulted by County, State, Federal, and private individuals regarding land use
and historic site preservation because her knowledge and connection to people and place is widely respected throughout the
community. She is indeed very,very well suited to take up the tasks of the Commission. I urge you to please confirm and
appoint Ku'ulei Keakealani to the Cultural Resources Commission.
Mahalo nui loa,
Heather Nahaku Kalei
