Nā Kamehameha (The Big 5) Modern Hawaiian resistance to the illegal occupation of our ʻāina by the United States government takes many forms. For Kealopiko, this includes reclaiming certain uses of language and reframing the importance of particular historical figures. “Mai kuhihewa” is a warning to not entertain illusions or mistake someone for someone else. This design challenges us to rethink who The Big Five really are. For us, they are the first five Hawaiian monarchs, not the five businesses (founded largely by white, foreign-born men and two sons of missionaries) that gained near total economic control of the islands by the end of the 1800s. We recast this ʻōlelo and celebrate a different legacy: I. Pai‘ea: Na‘i Aupuni - Solidified a national land base under his sole rule, pioneered a vision of peace and safety for all, oversaw massive agricultural initiatives; II. Liholiho: ‘Ai Noa - Participated in traditional rituals, subsequently overturned the ancient religious system, died traveling to England to strengthen diplomatic ties with King George IV; III. Kauikeaouli: Kū‘oko‘a - Sent envoys (Haʻalilio mā) to secure Hawaiʻi’s recognition as an independent state (nation), crafted the founding documents of the Hawaiian kingdom, promoted national literacy; IV. Alexander Liholiho: Ola Kino - Pioneered national health care with his wife, Queen Emma Kaleleonālani; V. Kapuāiwa: ʻOnipaʻa - Licensed kahuna, encouraged hula, encouraged his people to abandon alcohol.
