That was met with animosity as Samoans and Hawaiians did not get along.

Hawaiians and Samoans are natural enemies.

Like Hawaiians and Europeans.

Or Hawaiians and Philippinos.

Or Hawaiians and other Hawaiians (big islanders especially)

Aloha, when are you referring to? If you study the genealogies you'll see that Samoans and Hawaiians are intertwined.

So are Americans and Europeans but plenty of animosity there too

Sure. Its just that as a kānaka maoli and samoan person, this is the first I am hearing that we do not get along.
