Hawaiin: The Legned of Eddie Aikau

This film was very interesting. It showed a lot about imperialism. The film really showed how the Hawaiian's felt about imperialism. Although this film is many years after the annexation of Hawaii it really shows the effect it had. The Hawaiian's are very protective of there home land. They do not like other people coming in and taking over their territory. As it shows in the film when the Australian's start to come in and take over the surfing world in hawaii the natives really don't like it. This gives us a feel for how it must have been in the 19th century when America came in and took over Hawaii I am sure that the native people did not appreciate that very much. It showed that imperialism was not easy, you couldn't just walk in somewhere and take over without any issues.




this is an iamge of uncle sam chasing a filipino man which kinda shows how it wasn't easy just to walk in and take over.
