Experience: Hawaiʻi Life Histories
A public program and podcast series providing a sense of shared legacy for our island community by highlighting stories about Hawaiʻi lifeways, key historic events, social movements, and our role in a globalizing world. Featuring excerpts from our archive of over 800 interviews of Hawaiʻi women and men, this series was the first step in making these oral histories more accessible to our communities with the support by a grant from the Hawaiʻi Council for the Humanities and in partnership with Hawaiʻi Public Radio.
