- W4200301854 abstract "Whenever I travel to Hawai’i or to any other destination that requires me to be in an international airport terminal, a certain experience occurs. It is both sociological and political in nature. A recent trip to Honolulu provides an excellent example. As I checked my baggage at Los Angeles International Airport, a young woman standing behind me in line kept smiling at me as if we shared a special, unifying covenant. I smiled at her, perhaps out of a sense of fragmented community for, in a way, she was like me. She was clearly Amerasian, a mixture of Asian and American (usually non-Asian) ethnicities. (The term was coined by Pearl S. Buck to refer to children born of World War II liaisons or marriages between native Japanese women and American military men.) Encouraged, the young woman then smiled even more broadly and, as if I would automatically share her relief at leaving behind the ethnic whiteness of the U.S. mainland for the colorful ethnic polyglot of Hawai’i, asked, “Going home?” For a moment, I did not answer and she quickly assumed the affirmative. “Me, too,” she said. “I’m from Pearl City. Are you from Oahu, too?”" @default.
