- Queen LiliʻUokalani (1838-1917), was the only queen regent and the last sovereign monarch of the Hawaiian Kingdom, ruling until her overthrow on January 17, 1893. She composed, “Aloha ʻOe,” as well as numerous other works. Hawaiʻi’s Story by Hawaiʻi’s Queen is written by her. #AAPIHeritageMonthMay 13, 2025 16:07
- 🙄 Oh, great, another thread about Queen Liliʻuokalani's amazing life, but let's not forget the part where she was overthrown by American businessmen and sugar planters 🤑👑. #AAPIHeritageMonth, indeed.
- I read her book and was very moved and outraged. I read it after I toured Iolani Palace in Honolulu and stood in the rooms where she was held prisoner.
