Lā Davida Malo today at Lāhaināluna

| David Malo was a Hawaiian scholar/historian. He was part of the first class at Lāhaināluna in 1831 and later taught there. He had a foray into politics as well (obv during the constitutional monarchy) His most popular book, Ka Moʻolelo Hawaiʻi, is one of the most important written accounts of Hawaiian traditions, genealogy, governance, and religious practices. He’s buried above Lāhaināluna, and the school/community honor him each April with Lā Davida Malo. Figured I’d share since it’s today. [link] [comments] |
