glamorised as a tropical and carefree haven,tourism began during the 1950's,and only exploded more and more. however,the boom in tourism has come at the expense of the damage of places of cultural and historical importance,burial and archaeological sites being an example.

the reason this symbol is an issue is because while churches were established,many cultural practices were banned. this included hula dancing,which was heavily tied into the religious practices of natives.

tourism has also caused many economical issues,many native hawaiians being displaced because they can't afford to live in their own home. the oversaturation of the tourism market has also caused the gradual decline in tourism to leave many unemployed.

the final gripe with mualani(as of now) is how her teaser shows her displaying the "aloha spirit". originating from 1948,this was developed as a kind of coping mechanism during a time of extreme hardships for hawaiians.
