    THE NAVY AND THE Massie-Kahahawai Case THE POT CALLS THE KETTLE BLACK! -Cartoon by Bill Mora.n A Timely Account of a Dark Page In Hawaiian History Worthy of Study.. 25 Cents { PREFACE During the-past-two decades the Massie-Kahahawai case has been a symbol in Hawaii of a double standard of justice ~ one standard for the well-connected haole and another standard for the non-white generally. Nearly every Islander has heard of the case. Memories of the kidnaping and murder of Joseph Kahahawai by three Navy men and a wealthy society matron, who escaped with a token punish­ ment of one hour's detention, served in an anteroom at historic Iolani Palace, will long live in the minds and stir the emotions'of local peopie. Kahahawai and four companions had been accused--of rap­ ing Mrs. Thalia Massie, daughter of an heiress and wife of a Navy - All cartoons in this pamphlet are by Bill Moran and officer. After the four lynchers left the Islands, the Territorial government engaged the Pinkerton Detective Agency to make a , appeared in the Hawaii Hochi at the time of the Massie thorough investigation of the case. The Pinkerton report proves Case. They are reprinted here by courtesy of Hawaii conclusively that the youths were framed. Rochi; But this report, prepared at the taxpayers' expense, reposes in the Archives, unknown to the general public. Territorial officials did not dare publish it and face the wrath of white racists on the Mainland and in l{awaii. Island people generally, though they may be uncertain about the details of the Massie case, know that injustice was done in 1932 because white racist feeling was whipped up to fever pitch in the Navy, on the Mainland and in certain -Island circles.

    H-Law Hardeman on Stannard, 'Honor Killing: Race, Rape, and Clarence Darrow's Spectacular Last Case' Review published on Tuesday, May 1, 2007 David E. Stannard. Honor Killing: Race, Rape, and Clarence Darrow's Spectacular Last Case. New York: Penguin Books, 2005. xi + 466. $16.00 (paper), ISBN 978-0-14-303663-0. Reviewed by Martin Hardeman (Eastern Illinois University) Published on H-Law (May, 2007) David E. Stannard's Honor Killing: Race, Rape, and Clarence Darrow's Spectacular Last Case is about a place, a time, and two criminal cases. The place was the Territory of Hawaii. The time was 1931 to 1932. And, the two criminal cases consisted of a very messy allegation of gang rape, made even messier by the different races of the alleged rapists and their victim, and the later revenge kidnapping and murder of one of the accused. What became known as the "Massie Case" began on September 13, 1931, when Thalia Massie, the twenty-year old wife of a naval officer, reported her sexual assault by five native Hawaiian men to the Honolulu police department. Over time and with the assistance of the chief of detectives, Mrs. Massie's description of her assault, the assailants, and the license plate of their car would become more detailed. Ultimately, it would lead to the arrest, indictment, and trial of Horace Ida, David Takai, Henry Chang, Ben Ahakuelo, and Joseph Kahahawai, two of whom were Japanese, one Hawaiian-Chinese, and only two native Hawaiians. Fueled by the city's anti-Asian and anti-Hawaiian press, the alleged attack galvanized the Islands' white elite and incensed naval authorities.

Department of Kinesiology Graduate Program Director *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School iii Abstract On August 24, 2002, the United States Postal Service issued a commemorative stamp in honor of the man whom Robert Rider, Chairman of the Postal Service Board of Governors, called “a hero in every sense of the word.”1 The stamp honored Duke Kahanamoku, a man regarded with the reverence bestowed upon a legendary figure in his home State of Hawai`i, yet relatively unknown on the United States mainland. Bishop Museum archivist Desoto Brown described Kahanamoku as “the most famous Hawaiian person who has ever been, in terms of him being 100 percent ethnically Hawaiian.”2 Known as the “Hawaiian fish,” Kahanamoku is indisputably one of the greatest heroes that the Hawaiian Islands have ever produced. Born in 1890 Duke Paoa Kahinu Makoe Hulikohoa Kahanamoku3 died in 1968. In his lifetime, Hawai’i moved from an independent monarchy to full statehood in the United States of America.

By 1902, there were no Hawaiian medium schools in operation.
