The following is a message from Aedyn Rhys-King, kanaka maoli veteran and resident of Kapilina Beach Homes whose family was poisoned from bathing in and ingesting water contaminated by the Navy’s leaking Red Hill facility. #ShutDownRedHill 
“Water is the driving force of all nature. Our water in Hawai‘i has been poisoned by the U.S. Navy’s Red Hill fuel tanks over and over again! My ‘ohana along with so many others have been poisoned by the Navy’s negligence. They are not helping us. They have lied to us.“
“They have left us to fend for ourselves. They have said our water is “safe and unaffected”. In the beginning, they told us our water was NOT on Navy water lines. Many of us trusted that and continued to use the water. We continued to be poisoned. We continued to get sick.”
“Enough is enough! They need to #ShutDownRedHill, defuel and decommission the tanks, and demilitarize Hawai’i! You are causing too much harm to our ʻāina and to our people! I am sick and tired of seeing so many get sick from using “safe and unaffected” water.”
“Everyone who let this happen over and over again needs to be held accountable! How can any of us trust the ones who should be protecting us again? How can any of us feel safe when using our water?”
“WATER IS LIFE AND CLEAN WATER MEANS HEALTH!”
