Imagine the 51st state

For the past 123 years, since an attempted coup of the Hawaiian Kingdom by a racist gang of terrorists in 1893, the Hawaiian Islands have seen a government supporting racism. Before the coup, no matter your ethnicity, if you were living in Hawaii, you were identified as Hawaiian, a subject of the Hawaiian Kingdom. But, since the coup and even more today, the official policy defines, identifies, and rewards or punishes residents of the state of Hawaii by race quantum.

“Any institution which divides mankind into different kinds of races is, by definition, racist.”

The AlohaNation.com proposal is for the County of Hawaii (the Big Island) to separate from the illegal, corrupt, racist state of Hawaii and form a new state, the 51st state, to be named Hawaii Island. Hawaii Island could be a state free of racism, much like the original Hawaiian Kingdom. Hawaii Island would become the first real racism free USA state! All residents of Hawaii Island would be considered to be Hawaiian, ethnicity would not be considered. There would be no racial identities, no racial profiling, no racial questions on forms, no racial tribalism as now proposed by State of Hawaii. All Hawaii Island Hawaiians would be members of only one race, the human race, free from submission to racists.

Hawaii Island would be a new USA state with its own unique State Constitution. The new Constitution could be based on the 1893 draft Constitution of The Hawaii Kingdom, as modified to reflect acceptable elements of the US Constitution and desires of current islanders. On Aloha Nation.com read the draft 1893 Hawaii Kingdom Constitution and the USA Constitution.
