  • Office of the Public Defender
    STATE OF HAWAI‘I OFFICE OF THE PUBLIC DEFENDER Testimony of the Office of the Public Defender, State of Hawai‘i to the Senate Committee on Commerce, Consumer Protection, and Health February 10, 2020 S.B. No. 3044: RELATING TO OFFENSES AGAINST HEALTH CARE SECURITY PROFESSIONALS Chair Baker, Vice Chair Chang, and Members of the Committee: The Office of the Public Defender strongly opposes S.B. No. 3044. This measure expands Section 707-711(j) of the Hawaii Revised Statutes and adds another qualifying occupation to the ever-growing number of occupations which have been singled out for special protection against assaults in the normal course of their employment. While we understand the desire to carve out special protections for certain classes of individuals who are assaulted in the normal course of their employment, this measure is just another example of the expansion of misdemeanor level assaults to felony level assaults -- not based on the act itself but based on the job description of the victim. Over the years, this list of qualifying occupations has steadily grown to include many special categories and specific occupations. It is our position that all employees should feel safe as they go about performing their requisite duties. As we have cautioned in the past, we believe that with the passage of time, more and more special categories and occupations will be added to this list. As the list grows, additional employees and groups will be asking whether they should request special consideration and be included for special protection. Enhanced penalties for assaults committed upon health care security professionals will not have a concomitant effect on their safety.

PUB TYPE Reports - Research/Technical (143) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC05 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS Birth Rate; Census Figures; *Demography; *Educational Attainment; *Employment Level; Family Characteristics; Income; *Language Proficiency; Migr.tion Patterns; Population Growth; Poverty; *Samoan Americans; *Socioeconomic Status IDENTIFIERS California; Census 1980; Hawaii; *Samoans; Washington ABSTRACT This paper provides a broad overview of the demographic, social, and economic characteristics of Samoans in the United States, focusing particularly on the Samoan populations of Hawaii, California, and Washington, where 85% of Samoans reside. The data is derived from the "race" question on the 1980 Census and other local statistical materials. Demographically, the population is found to be highly urbanized, young (average age 19.5 years) and with a high fertility rate (averaging 4.3 children per adult woman). The total U.S. Samoan population projected for the year 2000 is most realistically estimated at 131,000. Among the three States, Hawaii's Samoans are youngest, with a higher dependency ratio and lower sex ratio than elsewhere in the United States.

  • Gwendolyn Mink Oral History Interview Final Edited Transcript
    Gwendolyn Mink Daughter of the Honorable Patsy Takemoto Mink of Hawaii Oral History Interview Final Edited Transcript March 14, 2016 Office of the Historian U.S. House of Representatives Washington, D.C. “Well, I think that every little thing—or maybe not so little thing—that the women in Congress dared to speak about, whether it was, you know, not having gym access in the 1960s, or insisting that Anita Hill be heard in 1991, to insisting that certain kinds of women’s issues get a full hearing—I think all of those things have been part of the story of women in Congress, and part of my mother’s story of being a woman in Congress. I think that what she took from her service was a constant reminder to herself of how important it is that women serve in Congress. Because one woman can’t accomplish what 218 women could, right? And so her goal was parity for women, for the whole full range of women’s voices. I think she hoped that the legacy of being the first woman of color, and being a woman who was willing to talk about women, you know, that that would be part of what she would leave to the future.” Gwendolyn Mink March 14, 2016 Table of Contents Interview Abstract i Interviewee Biography i Editing Practices ii Citation Information ii Interviewer Biography iii Interview 1 Notes 40 Abstract In this interview, Gwendolyn Mink reflects on the life and career of her mother, the late Congresswoman Patsy Takemoto Mink of Hawaii, the first woman of color and the first Asian- American woman to serve in the U.S.

  • Dehumanization of the Black American Female: an American/Hawaiian Experience
    Spaces for Difference: An Interdisciplinary Journal Volume 1, Number 1, pp. 65-85 Dehumanization of the Black American Female: An American/Hawaiian Experience KIMETTA R. HAIRSTON Pennsylvania State University, Harrisburg ABSTraCT The dehumanization of Blackness and its effects on Black females are rooted in the harsh history of slavery in America. Attributes such as race and gender impact their life and educational experiences. Examining the historical implications of dehumanization through the lens of Critical Race and Black Radical Feminist Theories provides a foundation for understanding issues surrounding gender, race, and identities of black females in society. This article uses data from 72 Black female students in Hawaii along with the author’s personal experiences to investigate the implications of being Black and female in Hawaiian society. Slavery, the most obvious example of the dehumanization of Black people, left a legacy of unequal treatment. For the purposes of this paper, dehumanization is defined as the process of depriving a person of human qualities, attributes and rights such as individuality, compassion, or civility (Feagan, 2001; Maiese, 2003). This is a process by which members of a group of people assert the inferiority of another group through subtle or overt acts or statements and may be directed by an organization (such as a state) or may be the composite of individual sentiments and actions. As such, dehumanization is a psychological process of making some people seem less than human or not worthy of humane treatment; dehumanization serves to morally exclude individuals from the norms of society. Maiese (2003) explains that ideology, skin color, and cognitive capacity are often criteria for exclusion and those who choose to dehumanize others tend to perceive them as a threat to their well-being.

  • Chuukese Migrant Women in Guam: Perceptions of Barriers to Health Care
    Hattori-Uchima: Chuukese Migrant Women in Guam: Perceptions of Barriers to Health Care Asian/Pacific Island Nursing Journal Chuukese Migrant Women in Guam: Volume 1(3): 19-28 ©Author(s) 2017 Perceptions of Barriers to Health Care http://digitalscholarship.unlv.edu/apin/ Margaret Hattori-Uchimaa Abstract This descriptive qualitative study examined perceived barriers to health care among Chuukese migrant women in Guam and explored which factors influenced health-seeking behaviors. Study participants recommended interventions which may reduce those perceived barriers. Since the Compact of Free Association with the United States was enacted in 1985, there has been a dramatic rise in the numbers of Chuukese migrating to Guam. This migration is anticipated to continue with more migrants needing health care, education, and social services. Little is known about their perceptions of barriers to health care services or the cultural, social, economic, and other factors that influence their health-seeking behaviors. Focus group interviews provided rich data, which were analyzed using content analysis. Themes included barriers to seeking and maintaining health and social and cultural factors influencing health-seeking behaviors. Major barriers identified were financial issues, difficulty in obtaining care due to long wait times, transportation problems, and struggles with both language and cultural nuances of communication. It was found that the women identified a mistrust of health and social services resulting from communication barriers. Social and cultural factors included the use of traditional Chuukese medicines, lack of preventive care services, confidentiality concerns, and feelings of mis- treatment. Participants made recommendations for improved care and expressed a strong desire to achieve the mutual goal of better health care for Chuukese migrants in Guam.
