Ho'olako 1987 is a time for the people of Hawaii to: — celebrate the Hawaiian in all of us. — acknowledge that we hold in eommon and cherish beliefs and practices derived from our host culture. — appreciate that we have, as individuals and separate ethnic groups, been enriched by iearning and borrowing from one another. — reaffirm the mutual respect we have for our differences. — recognize that our contrasting threads of existence add beauty and strength to the fabric of our life. — show our readiness to meet the challenges of changing times and a new century.
