Maui Rising: The Fight for Hawai’i’s Future, hosted by Jason Scott Lee

It’s been just over a year since the deadliest wildfire in modern U.S. history tore through the picturesque town of Lahaina, Maui, leaving a community reeling and inspiring a new generation of organizers ready to stand up for change. “Maui Rising: The Fight for Hawai’i’s Future,” is a one-hour special narrated by actor and Hawai’i resident Jason Scott Lee. It highlights the strength, determination, and resilience of the people of Lahaina and follows Native Hawaiian community leaders who see the tragedy as an opportunity to re-envision a new town based on ecological restoration, cultural repair, and ultimately a chance to build a stronger, more equitable and more sustainable future for all of Hawai’i.  Listen for it on Thanksgiving Day on KPQ at 8am and Friday, Nov. 29th at 12pm
