ACT OF WAR: THE OVERTHROW OF THE HAWAIIAN NATION"
See Hawaiian history through Hawaiian eyes. In 1893, armed troops from the U.S.S. Boston landed at Honolulu in support of a coup d'etat against the constitutional sovereign of the nation of Hawai'i. The event marked the culmination of a century of foreign intervention in Hawai'i. Today, after another century of dispossession, the people of Hawai'i, the Kanaka Maoli, are asserting their right to self-determination. A discussion will follow the film, lead by Jesse Lokahi Heiwa of the Hawai'i Solidarity Committee.
Bluestockings is located in the Lower East Side of Manhattan at 172 Allen Street between Stanton and Rivington - which means that we are 1 block south of Houston and 1st Avenue.By train: We are 1 block south of the F train's 2nd Avenue stop and just 5 blocks from the JMZ-line's Essex / Delancey Street stop.By car: If you take the Houston exit off of the FDR, then turn left onto Essex (aka Avenue A), then right on Rivington, and finally right on Allen, you will be very, very close.
