Dr. Nurse Nancy and another Gallatin Valley resident just visited Hawai’i and came back with eye-opening information – they had traveled to another country! For the history-minded tourist escaping Montana’s freezing temperatures by heading to the islands, this interview with Dr. Keanu Sai might deepen your appreciation of your destination.

Born and partly raised in Hawai’i, Dr. Nurse Nancy is excited to learn about – and share – an evolving perspective on the overthrow of the Hawaiian Kingdom Government and the ongoing illegal occupation of the Kingdom of Hawai’i by the United States. Would-be tourists who inform themselves of this information may find their own trip more meaningful, and they will definitely be showing some real “aloha” spirit toward the Kingdom of Hawai’i.
