Congress finds the following:
(1) Native Hawaiians are a distinct and unique indigenous people with a historical continuity to the original inhabitants of the Hawaiian archipelago, whose society was organized as a nation and internationally recognized as a nation by the United States, Britain, France, and Japan, as evidenced by treaties governing friendship, commerce, and navigation.
(2) At the time of the arrival of the first nonindigenous people in Hawaii in 1778, the Native Hawaiian people lived in a highly organized, self-sufficient subsistence social system based on a communal land tenure system with a sophisticated language, culture, and religion.
(3) A unified monarchal government of the Hawaiian Islands was established in 1810 under Kamehameha I, the first King of Hawaii.
(4) From 1826 until 1893, the United States recognized the sovereignty and independence of the Kingdom of Hawaii, which was established in 1810 under Kamehameha I, extended full and complete diplomatic recognition to the Kingdom of Hawaii, and entered into treaties and conventions with the Kingdom of Hawaii to govern friendship, commerce and navigation in 1826, 1842, 1849, 1875, and 1887.
(5) In 1893, the sovereign, independent, internationally recognized, and indigenous government of Hawaii, the Kingdom of Hawaii, was overthrown by a small group of non-Hawaiians, including United States citizens, who were assisted in their efforts by the United States Minister, a United States naval representative, and armed naval forces of the United States.

§ 4401. Findings
The Congress finds that—
(1) Indian art and culture and Native Hawai-
ian art and culture have contributed greatly
to the artistic and cultural richness of the Na-
tion;
(2) Indian art and culture and Native Hawai-
ian art and culture occupy a unique position
in American history as being our only native
art form and cultural heritage;
(3) the enhancement and preservation of this
Nation’s native art and culture has a funda-
mental positive influence on the American
people;
(4) although the encouragement and support
of Indian and Native Hawaiian arts and crafts
are primarily a matter for private, local, and
Indian and Native Hawaiian initiative, it is
also an appropriate matter of concern to the
Federal Government;
(5) it is appropriate and necessary for the
Federal Government to support research and
scholarship in Indian art and culture and Na-
tive Hawaiian art and culture and to com-
plement programs for the advancement of
such art and culture by tribal, private, and
public agencies and organizations;
(6) current Federal initiatives in the area of
Indian art and culture and Native Hawaiian
art and culture are fragmented and inad-
equate; and
(7) in order to coordinate the Federal Gov-
ernment’s effort to preserve, support, revi-
talize, and disseminate Indian art and culture
and Native Hawaiian art and culture, it is de-
sirable to establish—
(A) a national Institute of American In-
dian and Alaska Native Culture and Arts De-
