    There are people on the mainland who care. I have never been there but I know what the government did to the Native Americans. My wife and I are living on social security but giving what we can. You are in our prayers as well.

    It hurts my heart that the true inhabitants of Maui feel they are nothing more than " than the grains of sands of Maui." Please know I pray for you everyday 🙏. You are beautiful people who deserve so muclh more. Maybe your the one who needs to speak up for your people. I would donate to your fund for Maui. But not Oprah or the Rock!!

    I found out when my home of 34 years burned to the ground. I bought the same sized home with the insurance money and now my property tax has gone up about 1000% between that and my insurance living on a fixed income I can no longer afford the place I’m living in. I’m sorry, but given the location, the property will be reassessed and those people that lived there before will never be able to even afford to buy on the island… they’ve essentially stolen your land. You just don’t know and by the time you realize it, it will be as quiet as the police chief was during the Las Vegas shooting. Maybe that’s why he was brought in..

    Praying for Maui and it’s
    Citizens recovery.
    This lady said she wants tourists to come, but in the same breathe lumps all Americans in with Oprah .

    Hotel workers in 2004 spoke a question to my asian wife, why you with that white guy.
    Maui was hostle , and racist , i understand the injustice done threw history, but i may look white, but my ancestors are native american, osage, blackfoot, cherrokee, then german irish.
    And i never did anything to islanders.

    Yours was a more natural fire Kristi/ Cristina ... Black American towns were Bombed and set on fire decades ago , the land was stolen ... as a people we have overcome so much for the last 490 + years , then we see you crying for help to the same Govt that has oppressed my people (Foundational Black Americans ) since the begging of America. I can only offer you and others my sympathy and nothing else ... BTW ...where is the AAPI community ?? Seems to me , they abandoned you all too !!🤔

      Tires melted. Bodies were cremated. It takes over 1000 degrees to do that. No natural wild fire can do that.

      She literally said “I guess we look like leprocy people with our darker skin” she is saying “I guess you people think I’m diseased because I’m a different race” she said nothing about black people, don’t misinterpret her words, she’s stressed and lost everything.
