ʻUluʻulu submitted one of our favorite programs, Hawaiian Soul, for the @saarchivists  250 for the 250th initiative. 250 for the 250th is "an online repository that tells the story of our country in documents." 

Victoria Keithʻs 1987 documentary features Kānaka Maoli discussing the contemporary meanings of mana and kuleana. The film remains a valuable resource, offering profound insights into the Hawaiian Renaissance, its unresolved issues and its enduring legacy.

Follow the link below or in our bio to watch it and look at more of the documents that were submitted to create the online collections.

This month's public space screenings honor National Preservation Month and Asian American and Pacific Islander Month. We're featuring a News Reel from the 1940s that was created specifically for Hawaiʻi by George Taharaʻs Cine-Pic. The reel features a playful skit with J. Akuhead Pupule. 

The second program, is a documentary from the @picpacific collection. Made in Taiwan, follows Oscar Keightly and Nathan Rarere as they explore their DNA and cultural heritage leading from their families in Polynesia back to Taiwan.
