What is l ka 'õlelo Hawai'i ke ola, 'Life is found in the Hawaiian language' about?

Hawaiian, a unique Polynesian language that is the sole indigenous language of Hawaii, is severely endangered. Its traditional Speakers have been reduced to the elderly and one tiny isolated Community. Revitalization activities over the past 20 years have resulted in well-developed College and high school courses and a rapidly growing language-immersion effort. There is widespread support for the language among all segments of society, a legacy of Hawaii s nineteenth-century history äs a multiracial nation state in which Hawaiian was the national language.
