105: The Niihau Incident in Hawaii
Manage episode 433071445 series 2892588
On this episode of Common Mystics, Jen and Jill dive into a fascinating yet often overlooked chapter of World War II on the Hawaiian island of Niihau. On December 7, 1941, Japan launched a shocking surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, crippling the US Pacific Fleet and thrusting America into the heart of the conflict. Amid the turmoil, Japanese pilot Shigenori Nishikaichi was forced to make an emergency landing on Niihau. Initially oblivious to the unfolding chaos, the islanders welcomed the injured pilot with open arms. But as word of the Pearl Harbor attack spread, tension mounted, leading to a dramatic divide among the islanders about how to handle Nishikaichi. The fallout from these events would resonate deeply, raising pressing questions about civil liberties, racial prejudice, and national security during wartime.
