Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. It has been said that history is written by the victors, but that is no criterion for its truth Liberate Hawai'i boldly challenges the prevailing narrative that the country of Hawai'i was annexed in 1898, converted to a territory until 1959, and then converted once again to a state of the United States. Recent important research by Hawaiian scholars concludes decisively that what was transferred in1898 was not the sovereignty of Hawai'i, but merely control. In the 1800s, Hawai'i was recognized world wide as an independent country, including by the United States, and like other countries had widespread embassies and consulates, as well as its own currency and obviously a well defined island land base. The 1893 coup against the reigning Queen Lili'uokalani was a hostile act by a small group of Caucasian residents, with the complicity of minister (ambassador) John Stevens of the United States who directed the landing of 160 armed men from the USS Boston to menace the queen. Faced with this formidable force and impending war with the USA, the queen, wishing to avoid bloodshed, temporarily and conditionally yielded her authority to the USA, until the matter could be reviewed in Washington. The incoming president in 1893, Grover Cleveland, upon learning of what had transpired, halted the rush to annexation, the motive of the coup, and called the coup for what it was: an act of war. A stalemate ensued for the duration of his term. William McKinley took office in early 1897 and proceeded to re-submit the treaty of annexation that had been pulled by Cleveland. However, it failed to gain the requisite 2/3 majority in the Senate. Thus there is no(valid) treaty of annexation. What then occurred was the attempt to disguise a Joint Resolution of Congress, as a treaty, violating the Constitution and failing to recognize that no legislative body of one country can unilaterally annex a foreign country, even with the assistance of a puppet government, particularly when there is vehement objection by the residents of the country allegedly being annexed Thus, the very foundation of the claim to have acquired the sovereignty of Hawai'i and subsequent claim of statehood cannot stand. It is this awareness that has generated in Hawai'i today a broad and deed determination to regain full the nationhood status of the 1800s. International diplomatic efforts in that regard continue.…

Paper. Condizione: Good. Tan cover with black titling and illustration on front. "This work is not an attempt to lay the theoretical foundation for the possibility of revolution, but rather takes as an assumption the idea that the present society dom inated by monopoly capitalism cannot long endure. What I hope to do here is describe some possible and desirable directions for this nation of ours in a spirit of hope and optimism in the future of hu manity in such a way that will demilish the false claims that revolutionaries seek only destruction and therefore are the enemies of society. We are the enemies of capitalist society, but the midwives of the new. In the context of human relations, everything is possible. Our job is to render some of the possibilities real.
