Anti Annexation Memorial

Here I am next to the name of a relative who signed the Anti Annexation petition gathered by the Hui Aloha 'Aina. Nearly 21,000 signatures were gathered and presente to the U.S. Congress. The treaty never passed and so there was never a treaty of annexation as is mythologized. See http://libweb.hawaii.edu/digicoll/annexation/pet-intro.html
