Confused about Hawaiian independence?

Im a Chi-Filipino from Hawai'i. I was confused during the 4th of July weekend whether to celebrate it or not. I have some friends who support independence but most of them are Hawaiian and my friends who are fine being American are Asian, portagee, and samoan. Im not against the independence movement but im also not for it. I'm also kind of scared if it ever happens. I know that the takeover of the hawaiian kingdom was illegal and wrong and the haoles killed choke kanaka maoli but that was over a hundred years ago and many things happened during that hundred years. Im scared of what will happen we get independence. Are people going to get deported? One of my parents came from Taiwan and if independence happens, they might have their citizenship revoked and deported. I'm also afraid I might have to leave my home, Hawai'i. We might be forced to leave to the mainland because my family(not me) disagrees with the independence movement. I'm just confused right now. How can I be proud to be part of the United States and Hawai'i? What the US did was wrong and an Independent Hawai'i will have dire consequences.

    Hawaii could be the 50th state of the United States of America and is based nearly at the hub of the North Pacific Ocean thing which makes from Hawaii a very good selection for an incredible holiday, with hotelbye you will discover more. The normal beauty of the hawaiian islands remains one of Hawaii's best assets. One of the most exciting places to see in Hawaii is Volcanoes National Park. This bunch supplies a unique, close-up look at a dynamic volcano and the new landscape made by a volcano. Warm lava runs down the hill part, and dried lava covers the road, featuring their unstoppable force. Another place worth visit may be the memorial Visitors Center, a center that provides old informative data on the Harbor and the Japanese attack and the Battleship USS Missouri.

    I don't know to be honest as according to the USA census,indigenous Hawaiians are barely 10.15.% of Hawaii local population, and there will be too few to deport the nonhawaiians,unless they hire other groups as mercenaries to deport but otherwise it could be similar to Puerto Rico or or Native American reservations where the USA gov helps with the army defense and yet the local government is semi sovereignty I think,no offense
