text: Current federal policy regarding lost lands of the nearest kinship group is not assimilation as it is mistakenly practiced by the state agency administering this federal law, badly. It is self determination. Meaning native Hawaiian commerce as well as housing. It doesn't mean the state legislature gets to determine return of the native nearest kinship group to the lost land as per the intent of Congress. The SA persists in using the wrong language, capital "N" Native Hawaiian when the federal law applies only to native Hawaiians, as defined 50-100. A capital N is defined as anyone having ancestry. It is an unconstitutional interpretation of the original law based on that it is the same definition used by KSBE to decide who to permit to apply for entry to the school. The Hawaiian part of the capital N is a racial group according to Rice and federal funds cannot be allocated by Congress for it. Land not homes was the intent of congress. It is not a state law.
