How beautiful . Keep the love ❤ I moved to Oahu in 1977 @23; left @60 in 2014. I've loved everything Hawaiian from the first day. My hanai dad was a Peterson ... ½ Hawaiian ½ English. His brother, Mel, was an old Hawaiian musician. I loved that crazy old sweetheart❣ Can't wait to see him in Heaven❤ I'm coming home this year ... I'll miss seeing you. 🌈Aloha🥰 Beautiful video. Thank you💋
I'm not Hawaiian but this made me understand even more why I love going there soo much. I was stationed there from 97-00. I had one bad experience and that's because the guy was drunk. I go back to vacation and everytime I leave I miss being there. I give respect 1 to the island and 2 to the people and I get that same respect back.
Pupu hinuhinu reminds me of my mama - I loved it when we did the hula motions and sang the mele. My heart broke when aunty Nona told her story of her marriage to the boys dad - it was those days when racial ignorance was so prevalent. Nona Beamer,Irmgard Farden Aluli, Malia craver, Napua Stevens, Beverly Noa - a few of classically authentic wahine mentors for us Hawaiian women, mahalo. Aloha no.😊
This is a moving presentation of the importance of the Beamer 'Ohana led by their matriarch, Aunty Nona Beamer, in reviving and perpetuating traditional Hawaiian music and culture, and transitioning to new ways and times while spreading the wisdom and aloha to younger generations and other cultures. And to hear it all in Aunty Nona's own words and see her beautiful face and spirit with the words and music of her sons and the rest of her 'ohana -- this is a real treasure! Mahalo, PBS and the creators of this video, which we can pass on and share the story of Hawaiiana and the Beamer 'Ohana.
Mrs Beamer, a woman beyond her time. Kamehameha taught us to not be practicing Hawaiians back then, the dorm mothers upper campus had no clue about the culture. Zero. The culture was not really embraced at Kapalama. How sad to experience the color of the skin mana’o- she is the premier scholar Aunty - classic and classy Hawaiian.
Too bad PBS omits reporting on incompetent Hawaii state government on the elevated railway spending, ineffective law enforcement on homelessness and resulting crime, favoritism on sea walls for very rich ex-politicians who use racism to gain power, etc.
To much emphasis on our aloha. Teach our children How to use laws to regain our country back as ours, Not as a part of another country. Our own, anything else is none sense.
Aunty Nona was my teacher for YEARS and YEARS! I love her deeply and will forever.
A wonderful documentary and Aunties stories. Opens my heart with love and Aloha
How beautiful .

Sounds like Aunty Emma DeFries
I don’t like the word ‘Hawaiiana’.
To much emphasis on our aloha. Teach our children

Not as a part of another country. Our own, anything else is none sense.
