Former Democratic Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (HI) posted a video to Twitter on Sunday urging Americans to reject the “racialization of everyone and everything,” warning that it is a “dark and divisive path.”
“My dear friends, my fellow Americans, please, please let us stop the racialization of everyone and everything is racialism,” Gabbard said. “We are all children of God and are, therefore family in the truest sense, no matter our race or ethnicity.”
“The mainstream propaganda media and politicians they want us to constantly focus on our skin color and the skin color of others, because it helps them politically or financially,” she later added. “Aloha means respect and love for others. It’s what enables us to see beyond our skin color, and see the soul, the person within.”

Gabbard attempted to help cool political tensions during a Fox News interview last month with Trey Gowdy in which she slammed cancel culture.
“The main issue with this is when you look at our rights and freedoms, and our ability to debate them, and respectfully come out the other end agreeing or disagreeing — as you and I have over the years — it’s based on the fact that we are all children of God, and recognizing that, we then treat each other with respect and respect this freedom that we have,” Gabbard said. “So, let’s look down the path and say, ‘Okay, well, where does this cancel culture lead us?’ You see the final expression of cancel culture in Islamist terrorist groups like ISIS and Al Qaeda who basically go and behead those who … they deem to be infidels or heretics in order to silence them in order to protect others from being misled by those heretical ideas in the eyes of an ISIS or Al Qaeda.”
FORMER REP. TULSI GABBARD (D-HI): My dear friends, my fellow Americans, please, please let us stop the racialization of everyone and everything is racialism. We are all children of God and are, therefore family in the truest sense, no matter our race or ethnicity. This is Aloha. And this is what our country in the world need. The mainstream propaganda media and politicians they want us to constantly focus on our skin color and the skin color of others, because it helps them politically or financially. Aloha means respect and love for others. It’s what enables us to see beyond our skin color, and see the soul, the person within. So let’s do our best to cultivate this aloha in our hearts, and see and treat others through this prism of love, not through the prism of race and ethnicity. Please let us not allow ourselves to be led down this dark and divisive path of racialism and hate.
