In Hawaiʻi, a place name is not just a word, it is a memory and a glimpse into the history of our ʻāina, something we as the people of Hawaiʻi take great pride in. Serving as a call to action, Restoring Inoa ʻĀina follows the movement to reclaim Hawaiian place names that have faced erosion from colonization, highlighting the efforts of the many people amongst our lāhui fighting to restore them.
