Hawaiian Sovereignty refers to the movement advocating for the restoration of the political and cultural rights of the native Hawaiian people. This movement seeks to address the historical injustices faced by Hawaiians since the overthrow of the Kingdom of Hawaii in 1893, which led to annexation by the United States in 1898. Proponents argue for self-determination and the recognition of native Hawaiians as a distinct group with inherent rights. Supporters of Hawaiian Sovereignty often call for the establishment of a native Hawaiian government or a nation that would allow for greater autonomy and control over land, resources, and cultural practices. The movement encompasses various perspectives, including federal recognition, independence, and the preservation of Hawaiian culture and language.
