Preferred term

Asian American hierarchy in Hawaii  

Definition

  • To many outsiders, Hawaii is perceived as a “racial paradise.” It is often referred to as the “Aloha” state where people generally get along and emanate a goodness, love, and positive outlook toward people and life. Because of this attitude, most local people or insiders of Hawaii are generally uncritical of racial issues. [Source: Encyclopedia of Diversity in Education; Hawaii, Asian American Hierarchy in]
