Ka Wai Ola - Office of Hawaiian Affairs, Volume 38, Number 7, 1 July 2021 — He mihi, he aloha [ARTICLE]
He mihi, he aloha
ln the June issue of Ka Wai Ola, adjacent to the article entitled "COVID-19 Vaccines: A Real Shot in the Arm," we printed a sidebar called "Molokai or Moloka'i?" This was printed in error. It was merely a notation by the author that was never intended to be shared and was not checked for accuracy. Moreover, the quote was misattributed to Miki'ala Pescaia, who is the granddaughter of Aunty Harriet Ne. The mana'o we erroneously shared is from another source entirely. We reached out to make things pono and in that process, see value in a more comprehensive discussion on hearing and valuing the perspectives of multiple sources of 'ike in a future issue of Ka Wai Ola. We apologize for the confusion and inadvertent offense, and mahalo Miki'ala for her aloha. I ka 'ōlelo nō ke ola, i ka 'ōlelo nō ka make.
