Queen Liliuokalani, pictured at left, never wished to be a U.S. citizen. In the 1890s, the same time that women in the American West first began to win the right to vote, she was a head of state who fiercely defended the sovereignty of her own nation and people. She was born Lydia Liliuokalani in 1838. Queen Liliuokalani's struggle came to a head when armed U.S. troops invaded Hawaiian soil in 1893, illegally overthrowing Hawaii's government.

Liliuokalani lived out the rest of her days in Hawaii, never accepting the unlawful annexation of Hawaii as a U.S. territory. Her autobiography, Hawaii's Story by Hawaii's Queen, was a poignant memoir of her struggle to save Hawaii's land and culture. She wrote many beautiful poems and songs. Her famous "Aloha Oe" is sung around the world today. It is a love song and a hopeful promise that the Hawaiian people may some day "meet again" in their homeland. She died in Honolulu in 1917 at the age of seventy-nine. Descendants of subjects of the Hawaiian Kingdom will continue their struggle to regain their inherent right to a sovereign Hawaii. WE WILL NEVER GIVE UP!!!
