    The reading that is more informative and useful for a person who knows nothing about the sugar plantations in Hawaii is Article 1 “Hawaii The Land of Many” because it involves more of the plantation life and what the laborers do, while in Article 2 it speaks about the demise of the sugar industry in Hawaii. It states in Article 1 paragraph 2 that the bulk of immigrants coming to Hawaii began in the mid 1800s. Hawaii’s sugar industry was booming hastily, and sugar plantation owners were in need of more workers. Quoted from article 1, “Disease, introduced by foreign traders, had wiped out a large population of the islands’ inhabitants.” Those who managed to elude the epidemics were reluctant to work the long hours- 10 to 14 hours a day- that…

    Waipio Valley has many wild horses down there; there are many different breeds. The palominos are the hardest horses to ride.

The horses just stay in waipio and ruin the kalo patches (Kulia) and they are just a waste because hardly no one rides these horses.…

    The camp you will be staying at is off the coast of Southern California and is on the North Western side of Catalina. It is 22 miles from Los Angeles which is where you board the ship that takes you to Catalina. When you are outside (or sometimes even when you are inside), the temperature is normally really warm and sometimes humid so I would suggest bringing and applying sunscreen in the morning and after every meal. Some of the native plants are eucalyptus trees, pine trees, moss, and cherry trees. The cherries that are on Catalina Island are different than what we are used to.…

    Jersey Shore was a popular TV show on MTV between 2009 and 2012 about “Guidos”, or Americans of Italian descent in their twenties who rented a house together on the Jersey Shore, which was aimed at teenagers and people under thirty. Jersey Shore is affecting our culture in a negative way because the majority of people that watched it might have thought differently about Italians and think that’s all that they do. At one point, Jersey Shore became one of the most watched TV shows and I think it influenced some slang we use today. MTV is famous for making popular TV shows and sucking people in to watching them. They are really good at making reality shows.…

    America’s interest in Hawaii began in 1820, when the New England missionaries tried to spread Christianity. While the native Hawaiians were content to live in their traditional ways, America was busy building railways, hotels, and plantation and soon dominated their economy. Americans foothold in Hawaii was mainly as a result of the sugar trade. When America raised its imported sugar tariff to protect American planters from foreign competition, Hawaiian sugar became undersold in American markets. The sugar growers who were mostly white Americans were not happy about the situation and knew the only solution to this problem was to make Hawaii part of the United States.…
