Local Spotlight: Returning Ancestral Land To Native Hawaiians
For this installment of our Local Spotlight series, we talk to two reporters who investigated the Hawaiian homesteading program that aimed to return Native Hawaiians to their homeland. The program was established in 1921 when Prince Jonah Kūhiō Kalaniana'ole successfully lobbied for the passage of the Hawaiian Homes Commission Act. The program was implemented in order to help the population of Native Hawaiians grow. Want to support 1A? Give to your local public radio station and subscribe to this podcast. Have questions?
