Lā 2500

2,500 days of this current stand for Mauna Kea. From 2015 until now, the mountain has called upon Hawai‘inuiākea to the Honuanuiākea, to remember the sacred commitments we have to our connection to the land from the tallest mountains to the deepest of seas.

2,500 days of coming home to ourselves and our collective ancestral kuleana we each have to one another and to the balance of life.

2,500 days of learning what sacred community and sacred unity means in the name of reclaiming dignity for our selves, our homelands, and every ancestor we descend from who made sure they lived their lives remembering the ways of our people so that one day we could too.

2,500 days of calling upon ancient legions of the spiritual realms, nā kini, nā lehu, nā mano - the 40, the 400, 4,000, 40,000, and 400,000 to protect us as we protect our sacred Mauna from the building of the Thirty Meter Telescope.

2,500 days that TMT has not been built on Mauna Kea.

Eō!
Ea!
Kū Kia‘i Mauna!
