ʻUluʻulu Hawaii's official state archive for moving images.

The month of November is Native American Heritage Month. For this month we are focusing on one of the few full-length programs we have that focuses on the Native American Community. While this program, "The Salt Song Trail: Bringing Creation Back Together," is not focused in Hawaiʻi, it was produced by Juniroa, a Hawaiʻi-based filmmaking team, and now, one of our founding collections. This program examines a Paiute community's revival of the practice of singing Salt Songs, a tradition that had been long suppressed by the influence of Boarding Schools created to force Native Americans to abandon their indigenous identities and practices.

Thank you to everyone who turned out for our archival screening of "Hawaiʻi Ponoʻī 1970" today @hiffhawaii! We had such a wonderful time sharing this restored film in all its wonder and beauty. We're grateful to our wonderful panelists who joined us after the film, Myrna Kamae, DeSoto Brown and surprise guest and supporter Watters O. Martin. Thank you again to HIFF and all our wonderful supporters for everything as we continue to grow and push forward in our work! Screenings like this show us the value of our mission and help us see that others see it, too! #hawaiianlegacyfoundation #bishopmuseum #uluulu #uhwoacm #hiffhawaii2024 #hiff44 #hawaiiponoi1970 #movingimagearchive #archives #archivistlife
