- Honouliuli: Hawai'i's Hidden Internment Camp
This video was produced for the 2010 Day of Remembrance held at the Japanese Cultural Center of Hawaii on February 21, 2010. A longer version of this documentary will soon begin production.
This project is part of Education through Cultural & Historical Organizations (ECHO), a collaborative education partnership of museums and cultural institutions in Hawaii, Alaska, Massachusetts, and Mississippi. Support is provided by the U.S. Department of Education, Office of Innovation and Improvement.
I never learned about the internment camps until I was a senior in high school at Roosevelt. My ethnic studies teacher told us about it in 1975. It was too bad that as Japanese Americans, we didn't know what our relatives suffered through because they never talked about it.
It was so unfair that this population was discriminated against for no reason or fault of their own. I really don't know if we learned from this, they didn't complain.
There were plenty of reasons.
Thanks for the video. This was a sad time in US history. Good that the histories of Japanese Americans are being heard.
I didn't know that it had an internment camp in Honouliuli. My grandmother lived there and I visited her for two weeks in 1944, when I was 12 years old. Her house was in a gulch surrounded by sugar cane fields. Some Japanese families from Hawaii were interned on the mainland, but most was not effected.
Thank you for posting this video! I'm currently learning about Japanese American Internment camps in my History class. I did not know about this camp in O'ahu. I really want to see this place one day.
i first learned about this internment in Hawaii 7/25/2021. Until then I believed what I had been told which was that the International Longshoremen and Ware House Union had exercised political action to block all internment in Hawaii. How history changes over time. A little under age 65 when learned about this via this video.
This was a sad time in American history,. Hopefully we have learned valuable lessons for it.
I lived on the Big Island for nearly 20 years. My adult son still lives there. I knew about the Nesei Japanese American soldiers from Hawaii who fought in WW 2. But I never knew there was an internment camp in Oahu. Sad. They were American citizens.
This is absolutely heartbreaking 💔 I cannot believe they did this..
Thank you for watching this video. We hope something like this never happens again.
Thank you for this. Anybody knows about a family FAKURA on Hawaii Maui Camp 2. My grandfather has Fakura family name, my grandmother said that he has a Japanese Lineage working on plantation. He resides on Philippines on his adult.
Thank you for sharing.. so few people know about this ugly part of our history..
None of the accounts of the internment camps that I have read noted this about Hawaii. A few have reported that the Japanese Americans on the islands were treated more favorably than those on the West Coast of the mainland. I wonder if the sites have been protected?
Honouliuli is now a National Monument. Hawaiʻi faced selective internment...we just posted a short video about it. ua-cam.com/video/yk4vP2Bqf7I/v-deo.html
I was concerned about my plight in Postun, AZ. Can we visit Honoluliuli when we're on Ohau in September? Can anyone tell me where, exactly, this camp is?
Fred Sakurai I dnt I know where one was on the big island.
my grandparents had Japanese neighbors in the early 40's. when they were sent away for safekeeping they asked my grandparents to watch their house and possessions. after a couple of weeks they didn't come back so grandpa claimed their property. we still have many things that proudly we still have. there is a chest with cutlery and dishes and many tapestries and pearl inlaid mirror with comb and makeup kit among other things. my brother and I recently threw away the photo albums and other insignificant things but a lot of it is in good condition still. I was wondering how much it may be worth, may be more because of its historical value
2021, America, we remember past so the present day will NEVER allow! Constitution is not being honored but abused by politicians who don't care, and not for the PEOPLE, all of them!
These prison camps exist now on the Mexico/US border !!! What has changed, nothing !!!
