(45,568 posts)I had a friend who is 100% Lakota and he told me that Hawaii was annexed by America long, long after People moved to America..and took over the land. Hawaii was always, seemingly part of Polynesia.. I guess. My grandfather is 100% Hawaiian Native..and its sprinkled in with my Japanese heritage. I always seem to lean towards the Asian side, because I look Asian, and am a little darker, as are some Japanese. I love the Hawaiian side, its so exotic, but was never taught about it, nor have I really had time to research it, though I should.
You know, not many people know this, but there are some people, who were ON the island of Japan, who were there long, long, before the Japanese! They are called the Ainu! I have read about them and they seem to follow the same history as most invaded societies. Worth reading about as well. Nice to meet you! Hajimemashite! Dozo Yoroshiku!!
