Join us for a book signing with Peter Apo on Oct. 3

Trouble in Paradise for Hawai‘i and Hawaiians Native Hawaiian community leader Peter Apo has never shied away from publicly expressing controversial or unpopular viewpoints. As a legislator, businessman and Office of Hawaiian Affairs (OHA) trustee, he has been outspoken on cultural issues from Mauna Kea astronomy to Hawaiian sovereignty, from the future of tourism to what it really means to be Hawaiian. Now he shares his insights in nearly 100 essays and articles first published in the OHA publication Ka Wai Ola and for the investigative news organization Honolulu Civil Beat. In For the Record: Hawai‘i and Hawaiians, Apo’s compelling prose offer a deep dive into Hawaii’s past, present and future. “Read ‘The Hawaiians–A Divided People’ or ‘Urban Crawl–Is Hawai’i Becoming Just Another Place?’ You will feel Peter’s passion to right wrongs and build an even better Hawai’i.” —John D. Waihe‘e III, Governor of Hawai‘i, 1986-94
