As a Brit I'm very proud that our National flag is part of the State flag of these beautiful islands. Although I'm not sure what mainland Americans outside Hawaii think of it.
Wow,i never knew this,much love and respect to you all,from the UK.
That is one cool flag..makes us quite proud to think we have Hawaiian friends who can be as proud as we are..Greetings from the UK :)
Great Britain was the ONLY country that would have let us keep our monarchy. We would have been a territory of the UK. But still govern ourselves. Much Aloha(love) from here in the islands of Hawaii.
The UK didnt think much of Hawaii. That's why they allowed the country to stand. The UK at the time was pretty much colonizing everything.
@@treeinch252 I would love to visit the beautiful exotic Hawaii!
Thank you Kalaniakea, our flag has always been a symbol of
our close association with England. Through your presentation you you have expressed the undying Hawaiian spirit, and the love Hawaiians share for our islands.
Beautiful piece of history brother - and so well told...
As an English lad who has spent the larger part of my life here in Hawai'i,
I always have such a warm feeling to see the flag of my birth intertwined with that of my beloved adopted homeland.
I already knew parts of the story you told - but you filled in some BIG gaps...
Hope I can find more of your videos like this...
Please keep doing what you're doing.
Big mahalos.
12 years of education in the Hawaiian school system and this is the first time I ever heard about my state flag. Thank you.
I certainly have a better respect for that flag than before. Mahalo, Uncle Kalaniakea Wilson.

I'm half Hawaiian (hapa) but was raised on the mainland and this is the first time hearing this story about the origins of the Hawaiian flag. This is something that needs to be taught in all American schools.
Mahalo for refreshing da TRUTH OF OUR HERITAGE OF HAWAI'I. MALAMA PONO Kalaniakea. 🇬🇧🇺🇸
My husband is Hawaiian from the Big Island. Surprised him with 2 flags. The Hawaiian Flag and the Kanaka Flag. The look on his face made me cry. He’s a proud Hawaiian and I’m a proud local raised on the island of Oahu where I met him,... Mahalo uncle for teaching and educating people about Hawai’i Ne 🌺🌈🌞🥥🍍🍉🥭🌶🍣🍛🍱🍙🥮🍜🍯🍷🍵🍭🥠
Always wondered why Hawaiians were so enthusiastic about having our flag in their flag. Thank you for the lesson!
Those stories was awesome my Hawaiian heritage I know that makes me proud.
Fascinating! I’m Scottish and looked up the flag after seeing it in an episode of “the Inhumans” on disney+.....visiting this beautiful country and meeting its people is firmly on my bucket list....respect!
Awesome 👏
Imagine if all of the islands had been French, American or Russian? The British empire may have bad aspects, but now most people around the world want to live in the UK, Australia, America, Canada.
So beautiful eh, I love our Hawaiian flag!
Beautiful video. I just finished reading article "Ka Hae Hawai'i" in today's OHA publication saying that the January 1st, 1862 print was the second color print newspaper in the world. Great Britain was the first at a year earlier 😢? Either way, I'm still proud regardless, and still give him so much credit for the hours and hours of study he did for his thesis. What an enlightening experience that must've been. Mahalo for sharing.
Well said kanaka!!!
Very PONO.
Thank you for researching & sharing your mana'o.
If shackles & chains keep you in bondage,
Let education & awareness
Be the keys to freedom.
Aloha nui ku'u palala!
So stop the people protesting our learning at Mauna Kea
Mahalo, Kalaniakea for sharing the history.
I'm amazed by Hawaiian history. Thank you so much for sharing this!
Thank you Mr. Wilson. Profound and enlightening! I lived in Hawaii for 30 years and never heard this real story of the Hawaiian flag and the meaning of it. I carry a replica of the Hawaiian flag with me today even though I am not Hawaiian my heart is. Mahalo!
best wishes to Hawaii from the uk its great being islands, and very nice that the union jack is part of your flag . sorry about the 5 month occupation glad that the other admiral countermanded the flag order , I think queen Victoria wouldn't have liked it and writing to her was the right thing to do under the circumstances,
Mahala for watching!
What a great story
Great to see your video after getting to know you in class. Informative!
So interesting...beautiful flag
Thank you for posting. I had always wondered about that flag still being honored by Hawaiians. Yes everyone living in the kingdom should understand this and many other important facts about these Islands and the wonderful people here.
Beautiful history lesson. This would make a wonderful book or series of books for different age groups.
"GOOSEBUMPS"....
Oiwi....born and raised on the ROCK...to gain knowledge of the significant history of OUR state flag..as well as the important PEOPLE involved..
..MAHOLOS BRUH.....BLESS
Too good unko your knowledge of the people the land is great. Glad you share.
Kamahaʻo ke aʻo ʻana mai e pili ana i ka hae Hawaiʻi. Amazing to learn about the Hawaiian flag!
Awesome. Mahalo nui loa for the sharing. Awesome to have this to share with us all.
Mahalo Manu for the comment! ;-)
Captain Cooke gave King Kamehameha the British Jack as a gift. The state flag was the very flag that flew with the American flag when the Queen was over thrown. Bishop museum, British Museum in London where today they still have Hawaiian artifacts and has legers/notes from a British reporter back in those days that wrote about the flags. If you do research you will see that the only sovereign Hawai'ian nation flag was king Kalākaua. That's why today King Kalākaua flag still is drapped over the entrance at Iolani Palace. Plus this is the 4th video I've seen on CZcams talking about the state flag and all 4 videos explanation is all different. Not even on the same page. You won't catch me flying a British Jack flag. Negative!!!!!!!!!
Highly interesting, definitely appreciate his insight on Hawaii.
Love this video. Mahalo
I’ve learned something new. I can listen to you and learn so much. Growing up in Hawaiian studies this was never ever mentioned never. I’m sure there are more Hawaiian history that wasn’t taught in school. 😞☹️
Awesome video! Aloha Kalaniakea✌️
This was fascinating, thank you! May our nations be great friends forever.
This video is a wonderful history lesson, thank you.
Thanks for sharing!
... mahalo nuis! ... such an amazing story! ... my Kumu Raylene always stated ... as Hawaii’ians, we need to embrace ALL of our history (in order to to fully heal)

What an interesting explanation of Hawaii's flag and history! Mahalo!
Wow . Kalaniakea , you are a great teacher .
What a great historian! So much insight. But I missed the explanation about the how and why of the union jack? So seems that the Hawaiian seal would feel better there.
Thank you for sharing your manao, and for coming to Kohala to do it. So sad those beautiful big trees behind you are no longer standing by King Kamehameha, but it was good to see them in your video. Old friends.
Beautiful Story, thank you!
Awesome research, God Bless you and your fam🤙🏽

1843 Paulet pointed his cannon to Iolani Palace? Construction on Iolani Palace began in 1879, and completed in 1882. Clarify?
Seems he was talking about two different events. There was a cutscene before he started talking about Paulet.
The original structure in 1843 was a simple home known as Hale'Alii (Home of the Chief)..I can only assume that the speaker did not want to go into detail about Hale'Alii so he just called it the Palace as its more commonly known today. As they mentioned, there are many layers and the story can go on for hours.
1879 is the second Iolani Palace 1836 was the first
If you see the photo it’s clearly the old Iolani palace
Michael Evans he is talking about the specific place. Back in that time it was a heiau and Kamehameha III house.
Thank you for sharing that video was really insightful. A lot of people need to understand that we all came together to protect Hawaii from Tierney
Mahalo! Aloha
The Royal Union Canton is on the Hai-Hawai'i
Let them have their flag it's their right
Aloha, Mahalo for sharing this remarkable and well researched history. Would you be interested in approaching Hawaiian Airlines about sharing this informative video as part of the inflight entertainment for our arriving guest?
Now I'm convinced Maori originated from Hawaii, they merely named it Hawaiki, you are the only polynesian countries I'm aware of that use the word Mana, on top of having such similar spelling and meaning of different indigenous words. But just want to put it out there I'm quite sure that the French didn't support the Maori or vice versa, they were either pro-british or anti-british, they really didn't have allies, though those that were anti-british were quickly destroyed forced to forced to give up land.
did Kamehameha design that flag, or did he fly something else?
I actually took notes -- no joke -- because I sincerely want to know. Mahalo nui, Kalaniakea. Do you, through U.H. or some other facility, offer classes in Hawai'ian history?
Best video I've seen lately concerning the origin and meaning of the Hawaiian flag from a true native of the kingdom of Hawaii. To me it really brings out more context of the struggle of the Hawaiian people's in respect to the protests going on now in 2019 concerning the sanctity of Mauna Kea vs the TMT telescope project. Hopefully this will be resolved in a manner befitting of the beauty, the people and the culture of these islands of Hawaii. Please do your best in sharing this video to all. Love you from Cali... 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼😎👍🏽😍👌🏽👽💪🏽🙂✌🏽️
Is he making this up as he goes?
Hopefully the British can help out with Mauna Kea protests then yeah? Lol
