The Healer Stones of Kapaemahu
Four boulders in Waikīkī pay tribute to healers who brought their arts from Tahiti to Hawai‘i hundreds of years ago. A plaque commemorates the healers’ contributions, but fails to mention that they were mahu – people of dual male and female spirit. The Healer Stones of Kapaemahu tells the story of these healers and explores what happened to mahu as colonialism swept across the Pacific.
