THE HANAPEPE MASSACRE MYSTERY

GENRES: Documentary

THE HANAPEPE MASSACRE MYSTERY

A Filipino sugar cane workers' strike in Hawai'i in 1924 becomes explosive, leading to the deaths of 16 strikers and four police deputies. A fog of fear and reprisals in its aftermath grips Filipinos, as surviving strikers are arrested, tried and many jailed or deported. As the young Higher Wages Movement  is crushed, a mass exodus of thousands of Filipinos abandon Hawai’i for California or return to the Philippines, even as thousands more immigrants stream to Hawaii seeking better lives. Virtually a forgotten history for 95 years, THE HANAPEPE MASSACRE MYSTERY documentary film is being directed by EMMY Award winner Stephanie J. Castillo.
