Each year, February 19th brings us back to a crucial date in 1942. On that day, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed Executive Order 9066, a decision that authorized the forced removal and incarceration of over 125,000 people of Japanese ancestry, most of them U.S. citizens.

Zoom in on this amber orb — see the fuzzy brown stick? That's a springtail's antenna. This tiny creature fell victim to Pandora batallata, a fungus from an order called the "Insect Destroyers."

Despair isn’t our destiny — courage, connection, and community are. There’s more possibility than you think if we show up, share the load, and choose action over apathy. Let’s reject hopelessness and keep building the future we want to see. 🌱🔥 #OceanHoptimism #StayInTheWork

This is the latest expression of an illegal occupation asserting authority it never lawfully obtained. The United States—backed by sugar interests—overthrew Hawaiian self-rule. Now the U.S. Dept of Education targets programs serving Native Hawaiians. That’s not policy. That’s colonial continuity.
