Each year for Lā Hoʻihoʻi Ea, two people are honored for their activism and commitment to ea. This year, the two honorees are Sparky Rodrigues and his late wife Leandra Wai of Mālama Mākua, who have fought for the care and reclamation of Mākua Valley since 1996. In this special episode, Sparky reflects on his and Leandra’s life, work, and legacy.
To learn more about Mālama Mākua, check out our previous interview with Uncle Sparky and Aunty Lynette Cruz in episode 17 Mālama Mākua: Piko of Peace as well as a special update from last December about the Armyʻs written statement that they don’t need Mākua for live fire training ever again.
