Lili'uokalani stands as a noteworthy figure in Hawaiian history, renowned as the last sovereign ruler of an independent Hawaii before the United States' annexation in 1893. She is also celebrated for composing the famous song 'Aloha 'Oe.' This conference discusses her life as she navigated the complexities of political reform within her kingdom while striving to maintain its independence amid growing American imperialism. A proud descendant of a lineage that unified the Hawaiian Islands, Lili'uokalani deserves recognition beyond her royal reign, especially as many still yearn for the autonomy she represented despite Hawaii's statehood since 1959. Speaker Mariona Lloret, a Global History professor at Blanquerna Universitat Ramon Llull, will lead this exploration of her legacy.
