Honorable County Council members, aloha nui,
My name is Kawika Keuma. I am a 9th grade student currently attending Ka `Umeke Ka`eo PCS.
I am here testifying in support of Resolution 234-25. No words can express the hana that the US Military has caused to
the indigenous lands of our people.'In the last 61 years of having obtained the lease to allow you (the US Military), to hurt
this sacred land, P6hakuloa has been shot, bombed, and desecrated with no end. This is the time to end this desecration.
Hear my voice, this is an invitation to my people, a kiipa`a ma hope o ka `aina a hiki i ke aloha `aina hope loa!
Comm. L21
