Across the Pacific Ocean, California is the No. 1 state Hawaii residents
are moving to, and of all the counties, Los Angeles has the largest concentration of Native Hawaiians in the state, according to the U.S.
Census Bureau. The Native Hawaiians who live in and around LA are a
mixture of people born in Hawaii or outside of Hawaii. Some were raised
in Hawaii, and some have never even seen the Islands. The range of backgrounds reveals the varying identity struggles faced by Native
Hawaiians living in the diaspora.
"You still have cultural longing of course, but [in Los Angeles], you
can still have access to a hula school, to aloha festivals, and you're
one direct flight away. You're still very much living a lot of what
could be considered like a Hawaii-adjacent life, and that makes things a little bit easier," Alkhaldi said.
In 2020, for the first time, the U.S. Census Bureau showed that more
than half of Native Hawaiians live in the continental U.S. In
California, Los Angeles County had the largest Native Hawaiian
population at 15,983. By comparison, San Diego County had a Native
Hawaiian population of 10,965, and Sacramento County had a Native
Hawaiian population of 5,37

As usual, da article cited is kapakahi and goofy. Only 6% of the Hawaiians are
Native Hawaiians. Da Native Hawaiians are actually a rare breed. Most "Hawaiians"
these days call themselves "locals" and consider themselves to be culturally Hawaiian. They may or may not be part Native Hawaiian. One day, the Native Hawaiian will vanish but the Aloha Spirit will endure. If the Aloha Spirit dies,
then the Hawaiians will truly become extinct.

So if I'm culturally Australian, I'm an Aboriginal, yay!
My guess is that most Aussies wouldn't consider you to be a real Australian or >aboriginal.
Here's two bands. One is Australian, one is not. One is punk and the other plays
it cool - real cool. I like 'em both!

Look more closely at your citizenship papers. They're from Warner
Brothers. You're a Tasmanian Devil.
I can't believe that I have to explain all this stuff to you.

No, it's potentially lethal but not THAT bad.

Very chummy.

Is that a smoke break? If so, that sounds a lot like road workers in
the USA, they are always on break. If the weather just looks dismal,
they are paid to sit in their trucks instead of working.
