Research and Library Resources Essay My thesis was inspired by the article “Why Asian Settler Colonialism Matters” by sociologist Dean Saranillio, which chronicles Asian Americans’ marginalization of Native Hawaiians. As an Asian American from Hawaii, I was intrigued by this topic. My project thus investigates the consequences Japanese American advocacy for Hawaiian statehood had on Native Hawaiians. Based on the Leatherby Library databases that Rand Boyd recommended, I started my research by identifying key literature through Academic Search Premier and JSTOR.

  • “Violence and Press Incendiarism”: Media and Labor Conflicts in the 1909 Strike1
    kelli y. nakamura “Violence and Press Incendiarism”: Media and Labor Conflicts in the 1909 Strike1 “I punished Sheba because he is a traitor to the Japanese people . I’m glad I did it and I am only sorry I didn’t do a better job of it. I have punished Sheba and now I’m ready to pay for it.” 2 On a bright August morning in 1910, a young man named Tomo- kichi Mori stood waiting outside the U.S. District Court House in downtown Honolulu, with a pocketknife in hand that he had sharpened to a “razor-like edge.”3 Mori had traveled to Honolulu from Maui, where he served as an interpreter for the Circuit Court in Wai luku. But his presence on the corner of King and Smith Streets had nothing to do with business. He was there for a more personal and ultimately more nefarious matter. As Mori patiently bided his time, a middle-aged Japanese man emerged from the attorney gen- eral’s office. Mori immediately recognized him as Sometaro Shiba, the editor of the Hawaii Shinpo, one of the major Japanese-language news papers in Hawai‘i.4 Seeing his target, Mori quickly approached Shiba and accused him of being a “traitor” to his people, a charge that stemmed from Shiba’s close relationship with the powerful sugar planters who dominated the political, social, and economic land- scape of the Islands. Mori also criticized Shiba for selling out the Kelli Y. Nakamura is a History instructor at Kapi‘olani Community College. She focuses on Japanese and Japanese American history.

    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.

  • Hawaii, U.S.A
    ABOUT THE BOOKLET This booklet is the Hawaii Statehood Commis­ sion's answer to the charge that Communism in Hawaii disqualifies the Territory from becoming a state. It is published pursuant to the commis­ sion's statutory duty to refute erroneous statements about Hawaii and its worthiness to be a state. The material is the result of an objective study made by Buck Buchwach, city editor of The Honolulu Advertiser and a news service correspondent accredited by the Defense Department. It was developed from an article ordered from him in January, 1957 by International News Service for The Denver Post and later released to other news­ papers. In its present form the article represents the collective view of this commission. Hawaii Statehood Commission Honolulu, Hawaii April, 1957 HAWAII, U.S.A. COMMUNIST BEACHHEAD OR SHOWCASE FOR AMERICANISM? BY BUCK BUCHWACH "Nowhere in the United States have identified Communists gone farther in attaining their primary objectives than in the Territory of Hawaii." (Dr. Lyle G. Phillips, testifying before Senate Subcommittee on Internal Security, Honolulu, 1956). "If Hawaii becomes a state, it will be dominated by Com­ munist influences . .. it will serve as a beachhead for Communist in filtration." (Rep. B. Carroll Reece in Spotlight, December 3, 1956). *** These are the statements being spread upon the record before Congress and the American public. The loyalty of Hawaii's citizenry ... their devotion to American ideals ... is being questioned. Their patriotism is being impugned. The implication is, simply, that the 500,000 Americans in Hawaii are today under the Red thumb of a handful of Com­ munist leaders who can manipulate the political destiny of the Islands as they see fit.
