'At the elder’s call of "Kani Ka Pū," the sound of the conch shell echoes
across Hanakaʻōʻō Beach Park, summoning hundreds of surfers and outrigger canoe
paddlers to the water. They paddle out, their silhouettes stark against the
horizon, to honor the 102 lives lost to the Maui wildfires one year ago.
Onshore, the community gathers in shared purpose: groups that have emerged from
the ashes lead lei-making workshops, screen print "LAHAINA STRONG" onto
clothing, and provide free childcare for families still rebuilding their lives.
Faith leaders, hotel workers, and small business owners join hands in prayer
and song, their voices mingling with the ocean breeze, a testament to the
enduring spirit of Lahaina.'
Via Frederick Wilson II.
