About Native Stories

In the Hawai’ian Islands today, the desire to relearn and reintegrate native ways and knowledge into everyday life is at a peak. In many ways, it’s also more challenging than it’s ever been. Finding reliable, authentic sources and content amongst the clutter of colonized narratives, outside influence and scattered cultural records is a critical step on the path to reinstill a way of life that has been constrained. Capturing authentic content, cataloging it, and creating a platform or place to make it easily accessible and actively used are further steps on the journey. Native Stories exists to take this journey. To reset the narrative for visitors, locals and natives, through spreading the voices and stories of those of and connected to the land. By creating a resource for pilina – connection – to place, Native Stories aims to activate new perspectives that inspire individuals to embrace their kuleana – responsibility – for the land.
