War flag of the Imperial Japanese Army

[edit]

Japanese on the whole were loyal to America during WWII when the country they originated in was fighting their new home country. Another thing is neutrality the of flag it makes Japanese Americans look like disloyal Militarist . I think the best course of action is to remove the flag if people want to put it back I think a reason should be given. 66.66.1.115 (talk) 15:43, 10 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Major wave of immigration

[edit]

So when exactly did the major wave of immigration from Japan take place? The article doesn't make it clear. Did the Japanese immigrants come as contract workers, or simply immigrate in the hope of finding employment when they arrived? 71.205.174.204 (talk) 04:21, 5 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Local Identity

[edit]

While this page does an accurate job of covering the history of the Japanese in Hawaii, it lacks the inform the importance of local identity in Hawaii and how many of the Japanese Americans form communities based around localist tradition. Thissource, "Why There are No Asian Americans in Hawai'i: The Contunuing Significance of Local Identity '' by Jonathan Okamura, does a good job of capturing such localist culture.

Strangely short article

[edit]

Curious that this article basically halts its coverage of Japanese in Hawaii in the 1930s... I wonder what happened after that? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 152.37.110.98 (talk) 06:35, 16 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I concur with you, given that this very topic is stated on other similar pages as well (e.g., Japanese Canadians in British Columbia#Internment, and Japanese Americans#Internment and redress). Sink Cat (talk) 21:35, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Why is "Pre-Western contact syphilis" part of this article?

[edit]

This section early in the text about syphilis is a strange addition to the "Japanese in Hawaii" article. I'm thinking this must be the work of a troll and nobody has noticed it. Can the person responsible for this article please check it? Texasstorm (talk) 02:59, 15 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The edit appears to have happened between this edit and this edit. However the diff doesn't show this change being made. I suspect an administrator deleted the edit that added the content. I even checked through Wikiblame and found the same results. Sink Cat (talk) 04:30, 11 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
