Book Filipinos in Rural Hawaii

Download or read book Filipinos in Rural Hawaii written by Robert N. Anderson and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2019-09-30 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Filipino immigrants and their descendants who have lived in Hawaiʻi’s plantation communities are the subjects of this thoughtful and social analysis. Here is an inside look at various facets of Filipino rural life—working conditions, courtship pattern, living patterns, living standards, celebrations, and even “chicken fighting.” Over the last couple of decades, the plantation towns of Hawaiʻi have been dying. Fewer workers are needed as land is converted to other uses and as labor-efficient production techniques are developed. The displacement of people whose lives have been centered on the functional apparatus of the plantations is particularly distressing. As Hawaiʻi copes with the human problems, it is important to understand the history, social behavior, and values of Filipino plantation workers, some of whom now face substantial hardship. The author and his co-researchers studied three plantation towns in depth and examined in varying detail the lives of Filipino plantation residents on the islands of Kauaʻi, Oʻahu, Molokaʻi, and Hawaiʻi. In the course of collecting data, they taped and transcribed a number of conversations, some of which are included here. These voices add a lively counterpoint to the data and discussion. As time and events overcome the caretakers of the ethnic cultures of Hawai'i's plantations, the rural lifestyles of these communities may be forgotten. Books such as this will help to preserve their flavor and texture. Social scientists, scholars and students of ethnic studies, community leaders, and even the people described herein will find this a useful and informative study.

Book Filipinas  Voices from Daughters and Descendants of Hawaii s Plantation Era

Download or read book Filipinas Voices from Daughters and Descendants of Hawaii s Plantation Era written by Patricia Antonio Brown and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-12-02 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twenty-nine Filipinas traveled fifty-three hundred miles to Hawai'i in 1907 pursuing better lives. Thousands of Filipinas followed. These daring women created major life changes, but their stories were seldom heard. FILIPINAS! Voices from Daughters and Descendants of Hawaii's Plantation Era seeks to change that. Sixty-seven storytellers and collaborators share details about their early immigrant ancestors and themselves shedding light on culture, spiritual beliefs, and roles Filipinas continue to play in Hawaii's history. Filipinas are prudent and rarely share their personal and family stories of struggle and perseverance. As their generations decline, they recognize their history will be lost forever. Therefore, they chose to honor plantation-era Filipinas by sharing and preserving their stories publically and offering them as reliable truths and learning tools. "This path-breaking book by Dr. Patricia Brown deals with the fascinating lives and times of the first Filipinas in Hawai'i in the early decades of the twentieth-century," says Dr. Belinda Aquino, professor emeritus of Asian studies at the University of Hawai'i, Manoa, and founding director of its Center for Philippine Studies. "It is a landmark addition to the relatively scant history of Filipinas and Filipina-Americans in the islands and will certainly enrich the existing literature on this particular topic."
