We reached out to mele practitioners across Hawaiʻi to record themselves sharing a mele that captures how they would reply to these prompts: How do you kūʻokoʻa? and/or What does kūʻokoʻa mean to you? The idea was that as mele practitioners, they would answer these prompts in the video through both the mele they share and any explanations they include along with it. Here are the mele practitioners who generously shared their mele during
Kuokoa Kukanono 2020:
Chad Takatsugi
Ka Ohana Krug
Kainani Kahaunaele
Kaipo Hale
Kihei Nahale-A
The Peahi Serenaders (La Kuokoa Song)
Project KULEANA Na Moo o Koolauloa
Heoli and Jon Osorio
This mele features The Pe'ahi Serenaders.
