Correcting the Record
"The U.S. Commission on Civil Rights was established 50 years ago to fight discrimination by investigating claims of civil rights violations. Its local representatives, the state advisory committees, took on the role of community "eyes and ears" to advise the commission of important local concerns. However, recent actions by the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights (USCCR) and the newly comprised Hawaiʻi State Advisory Committee (HISAC) have narrowed the discussion to one issue in Hawaiʻi: the Native Hawaiian Government Reorganization Act (NHGRA), also known as the "Akaka Bill" named for its primary sponsor, Senator Daniel Akaka. This report analyzes the USCCR and HISAC's recent proceedings and fact-finding efforts on the Akaka Bill, focusing on the USCCR briefing report on NHGRA in May of 2006 and the public hearings held by the HISAC in August and September of 2007. The publication of misinformation and historic inaccuracies resulting from these USCCR events were the impetus of this report, "Correcting the record: the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights and Justice for Native Hawaiians"-- Executive summary.
