Ruth Ke'elikolani Princess Diaries


Another feature about the PBS special on Princess Ruth Ke'elikolani, this one from the Advertiser:

"It may well be true that Princess Ruth Ke'elikolani's famously retrograde sensibilities have relegated her to the margins of Hawaiian history. But as the latest installment of PBS' Biography Hawai'i series suggests, Ke'elikolani's fierce commitment to the native people, culture and language of Hawai'i — not to mention her administration of the massive land holdings that would eventually constitute much of Kamehameha Schools Bernice Pauahi Bishop Estate — make her an intriguing subject for contemporary scholars and an unlikely role model for Hawaiian activists.

"In a bold move appreciative of Ke'elikolani's loyalty to her native language, the show's producers have prepared both English and Hawaiian-language versions of Biography Hawai'i: Ruth Ke'elikolani. The half-hour shows will be shown back-to-back Wednesday starting at 8 p.m., and again on Saturday at the same time."
