9-9-15 The Hanapepe Massacre in 2:00


http://laborhistoryin2.podbean.com/e/september-9-the-hanapepe-massacre/




On this day in Labor History the year was 1924. Sixteen striking Filipino sugar workers on the Hawaiian island of Kauai were killed by police. This incident is known as the Hanapepe Massacre. Filipinos began immigrating to Hawaii to work on sugar plantations in 1906.

2:00 minute audio at link.

The Rick Smith radio show has some fans trying to get his show on Sirius/XM.

I post his labor history in 2:00 on the DU every day with a great response.

Please help make this happen.
