Thinktech Hawaii

We will discuss the events leading up to February 10, 1843, when Lord Paulet of the British Royal Navy sailed into Honolulu Harbor and captured the town, the occupation and negotiations that followed, the eventual arrival of Admiral Richard D. Thomas from England with a proclamation from Queen Victoria disapproving Lord's Paulet's actions, the meaning of King Kamehameha III’s proclamation, "Ua mau ke ea o ka aina i ka pono", the precedent these events set for Queen Liliuokalani’s decision to yield to the United States in 1893, and modern efforts to reconcile for the Overthrow of the Kingdom of Hawaii.
