Danny and Derek sit down with Noelani Ahia, a Kānaka Maoli community organizer in Maui, to discuss last week’s devastating fire that destroyed much of the city of Lahaina. They discuss the present situation there, the role of the American government’s resource and water management in exacerbating the conditions leading to the fires, the struggle of native Hawaiians, how climate change is affecting Hawaii, and more.
Donate to the Maui Mutual Aid Fund now to help Lahaina and its people recover.
