Duke Kahanamoku Quick History Part 1

[@SailorBarsoom]

Thank you for posting this. Duke Kahanamoku is somebody I knew of, but didn't know a lot about. I knew that he was a swimmer and surfer from Hawaii and that he had been in the Olympics. This video is filling the gaps in my knowledge.

[@Junbug92]

Oh my god did I just see footages of her majesty queen liliuokalani. I thought there were none.

I can only imagine how many Hawaiians would've of thrived in sports in this day and age if disease didn't run rampant and cause a major depletion on native Hawaiians. It's ok, we still have other polynesians doing their thing in sports.

Hi is not a 50th state ambassador. His a native Hawaiian. Like here in America the continent, we Hispanics, like you call us, aren’t immigrants.

hi

What does it matter if he was “pure bred?” It’s like they are talking about dogs at a dog show. He was the Duke, a great human being.

[@Nirvezz]

C N Fucking idiot, you compared it to dogs. Obviously you don’t know your fucking history and/ or uncultured. There aren’t as many indigenous people in their respective lands due to killing them off, diseases that was brought to them from explorers and so forth.
