Ocasio-Cortez noted on Thursday that Hawaii’s statue was of Fr. Damien and not of “Queen Lili’uokalani of Hawaii, the only Queen Regnant of Hawaii,” implying that it was an example of “colonizers” being honored instead of historical figures who are native to states.

AOC is an idiot. Does she not notice the huge statue of King Kamehameha I, a native Hawaiian, and Hawai'i's main statue displayed prominently at the entrance hall to the Capitol Building, where she supposedly works every day?

She looks at a statue of St. Damian and all she sees is a white man. What an ignorant, racist pinhead.

Isn’t Alexandria Ocasio Cortez a Spanish name? And was not Cortez one among many of the Spanish explorers who, using her logic, are worthy to be CONDEMNED for having “invaded” this land and exploited its natives?
So, she really has just CONDEMNED her own stupid self!

A Hawaiian Catholic catechist said that St. Damien of Molokai is a “hero” to the Hawaiian people,

Correct, Molokai.
