“You caller, need to learn about Hawai’ian history and about where you are.”

Of Native Hawai’ian descent, Trask is a professor of Hawai’ian Studies with the Kamakakuokalani Center for Hawai’ian Studies at the University of Hawai’i at Manoa and has represented Native Hawai’ians in the United Nations and various other global forums.
