Honolulu, HI

COMMENT

re: racism in hawaii? - 11/18/2006 I completely disagree with all of this racism nonsense. I'm white and from the mainland and have lived and worked here for three years. I have never once experienced anything interpretable as unfriendliness due to my lack of Asian/Pacific Islander appearance. Honolulu is probably the most tolerant place in the U.S. There is a general distinction between locals and mainlanders, and you can tell who's who by the accent. People who interpret this, however, along racial lines are simply wrong. Ask any "haole" who has grown up here and speaks with a local accent and he or she will tell you the same thing. Some people just seem to be looking for trouble and projecting their own negative feelings on to everyone else.
