It’s wonderful to see these services happening within the lagoon. We lived on Moen 1968-70 working in education. No place is more beautiful.

um the United States was taken by native people. And no it is NOT like Standing Rock. That was over natural gas and the concern of a leak and it was near burial grounds. Also the protest there was not going to go on forever. AND no ALL of the navigation was done by astronomy so they would not even be on that island if it wasnt for that FACT and as for your figures- IT IS NOT BEING PAID FOR BY THE UNITED STATES or HAWAII. It is an international endeavor. AND NO IT IS NOT FOR MILITARY-- They want to launch into space. Space Force is NOT interested in astrophysics-lol - Try watching some ACTUAL science videos about WHAT the telescopes do. www.ted.com/talks/sheperd_doeleman_inside_the_black_hole_image_that_made_history?language=en#t-137999

Didn't feel right giving a "Thumbs Up", but I did anyway. It's a very sad poem and you seem to understand it well and can bring out its depth of despair, James. Thank you!

Awww. The children are beautiful.

Honorable man. First watched him talking about the Micronesian issues in Hawaii and I got inspired with his words of wisdom. So glad I stumbled into your video. How we do purchase a book? Lastly, thank you for that great eulogy.

I think the typhoon hit our Island in 1976 I think.

maravillarosa canción

maluku

such bullshit, his people huff gas and sleep in the roads offering nothing to the betterment of society which is why they were still hiding in bushes and throwing rocks at animals while white people already had railways, libraries and a civilization that started after the abos but was 100s of years ahead of the abos. crazy how that works eh?

My island TOL . LOVE & MISS IT . Thank you for sharing your videos .

Onee me nuwan nimwa, nice video.

That sounds like a great idea. Because it's so great it has to be flourishing and popular some place, isn't it ?

3:42 Just to say it's caled GON in our island!!!!!

hey this immpressive I like it and i also miss my Island(OH AND I LOVE TARROW JOE)

The Catholic Church formed a cornerstone of Jojo’s childhood. His ancestors were instrumental in introducing Catholicism to the island: introducing the priests, donating the land and resources to construct the church buildings and cemetery. Jojo’s mother and grandmother were deeply religious: praying the rosary daily, celebrating Saints days, insuring the continuity of the lay ministry during the priests’ absence. His family was delighted when Jojo became an altar boy. “Perhaps Jojo, too, shall one day become a priest!” his grandmother dared to imagine. I was taken by the fact that the baseball playing New Yorker, Father Rively, became a beloved figure on the island. Jojo believed that the priest was closer to God than anyone, but rather than fearing him because of his exalted position, Jojo trusted and loved the man. (Upon learning that years later Father Rively appeared in Hawai’i at the Rehab Hospital to encourage Jojo’s return to Xavier, I broke into tears. It was an apparition!) Father Rively learned the Mortlockese language; respected Jojo’s family life, including traditional healing practices; and petitioned to live-out his senior years on the islands (a request which the church later denied). The message that Jojo internalized from Father Rively was one of forgiveness and love. ----- Stolen Chicken ----- Other than my grandfather, Father Rively was the most significant authority of my childhood. The story of the stolen chicken is illustrative of the mixture of fear and respect he imbued within me. I was perhaps 12 years old when one day my mates showed up at my grandparents’ house carrying the storekeeper’s chicken in a cotton sack. We all knew that stealing was wrong, but stealing chicken was somewhat forgivable among us island teens. "What are you up to?" I asked knowingly. Amid twinges of guilt, we traipsed to our favorite lagoon-side haunt to kill, pluck, grill and consume the bird. To cover our tracks, we buried its head and feathers in the sand. The bird was delicious - a finger-licking, guilty pleasure! Under a crescent moon, we filled our bellies, giggled and laughed before parting ways for home. At school the following day, we heard the gossip that a plump and prized chicken had gone missing some nights previous from a tree in the shopkeeper’s yard. It had likely been stolen it was suggested - with the culprits as yet unidentified and at large. At recess we huddled in the schoolyard, wide eyed and guilt-ridden. “They’ll never catch us!” we whispered. “Will they?” The clues of our undoing were soon discovered, including the charred remains of the cooking fire, the chicken bones strewn about in the sand, and most incriminating of all, the recognizable head and feathers which had somehow surfaced from their burial plot, uncovered perhaps by tide. Bearing this rich cache of evidence, the angry accusers approached my grandparents who in turn referred them to me. “If you don’t give it up, we will tell the priest!” they threatened. “And if you’re guilty, God’s punishment will be swift and severe! You and your mates will cluck like chickens until the day you die. And all the world will know of your sin!” I shuddered in fear. The very thought of Father Rively collaborating with God to curse me in such a way was more than I could stand. The shame. The unforgivable shame! I gave a full confession to my grandmother who spanked me and forbade my mates from setting foot on their property again. The stolen chicken was replaced. The shopkeeper expressed his forgiveness. I remained in Father Rively’s graces as an altar boy. My buddies and I never clucked nor crowed, but it was to be the last time we stole chicken.

I’m pretty sure this is somewhere in Micronesia, NOT Polynesia
