Mindi Reid contacted me about Kumu Mapuana and Kihei de Silva. She told me that Kihei wrote an utterly brilliant piece about a hula in Ka'iulani's honor (I Mauna Lahilahi)..."Those Darned Traditionalists". It's an essay all should read, as it bears on a little talked about time in Ka'iulani's life, presenting her in a truly Hawaiian context. For those who join Mindi and I on this journey, here's the link: http://hccp.ksbe.edu/kaleinamanu/5-traditionalists.php
I hope to contact them for their input to the production.
