Protesters in Hawaii have gathered together to show their solidarity against the construction of a telescope on the state’s tallest mountain, Mauna Kea because it is considered highly sacred land by some Hawaiians and one person to help support their cause was The Rock.
The Rock visited Hawaii late last month to show that he’s behind the people of Hawaii. Good Morning America caught up with The People’s Champion who stated that there can always be a solution for both sides, you just have to have the right people at the table sharing the right discourse. You can watch his take on the matter below:
