Hawaiian sovereignty movement - Office of Hawaiian Affairs.
Of the groups in the current Hawaiian sovereignty movement, the oldest and best funded is the Office of Hawaiian Affairs (OHA). OHA was created in 1978 by the State of Hawaii Constitutional Convention. OHA's stated purpose was to represent the interests of Native Hawaiians in the administration of the Hawaiian Homelands and the Ceded Lands — land formerly belonging to the Hawaiian government and crown that were ceded to the United States as public land ...

Hawaiian sovereignty movement - Apologies.
Due to efforts by the various Hawaiian sovereignty movements and other Native-Hawaiian activist groups, the United States government and the state government of Hawaii have issued official apologies in recent years.
Some with a different perspective of the historical record (see "Opposition" below) sharply disagree with these apologies, questioning the accuracy and validity of the case made for them.
The U.S. government apologizes:

Liliʻuokalani's own response to her overthrow changed over the years. Although at first she worked to effect a counter-revolution, eventually she reconciled herself to the course Hawaii had taken. Opponents of the Hawaiian sovereignty movements see this as ex post facto justification for the overthrow, whereas sovereignty advocates dismiss this as a ...

| | | | | Ka: Encyclopedia II - Waka - Poetic culture In ancient times, it was a custom between two writers to exchange waka instead of letters in prose. In particular, it was common between lovers. Reflecting this custom, five of the twenty volumes of the Kokin Wakashu gathered waka for love. In the Heian period the lovers would exchange waka in the morning when lovers met at woman's home. The exchanged waka were called Kinuginu (後朝), because it was thought the man wanted to stay with his lover and when the sun rose he had almost no time to wear his clothes which had been laid inste ...

| | | | | Ka: Encyclopedia II - Waka - History of Waka development Waka has a long history. It was first recorded in the early of the 8th century in the Kojiki and Manyoshu. Under influence from other genres like Kanshi, Chinese poetry, novels and stories like Tale of Genji or even Western poetry, it has developed gradually, broadening its repertoire of expression and topics.
In literary critic's Donald Keene's books, He uses four large categories:
Early and Heian Literature (Kojiki to past 'The Tale of Genji' to 1185)
The Middle Ages ('chūsei' from 1185, including the Kamakura ...

| | | | | Ka: Encyclopedia II - Waka - Tanka written in English The writing of tanka in English started more slowly than the writing of English-language haiku, with the first English-language tanka collections dating from 1974. There is still vastly less tanka written than haiku, but interest in the tanka form in English is growing. The most popular form of present-day tanka in English frequently preserves only the outer form of tanka, with content much like other contemporary Western romantic poetry.
Unlike Japanese poets, who often write primarily or only in one poetry form, many English-languag ...
