Aloha Hip Hapa Homeez,
Well, it’s finally HAPA-ened. Here we are on the first
Wednesday of the month, ready for publication, and there’s no interviewee to
publish.
Apologies to all our readers, and mahalo nui loa for liking
our Facebook pages (Watermelon Sushi, Hapa*Teez, War Brides of Japan) and following our social media accounts (twitter). You guys rock!
If any of you have an interesting story to tell, drop us a
line. Whether you’re of mixed ethnicity, a transracial adoptee, in an
interracial relationship, or someone who crosses cultures, we want to talk to
you!
Meanwhile, let’s revisit a Hip Hapa Homee from the past who
was featured here earlier this year, multi-generationally mixed-race Kahlil Crawford.
Here’s a quick update. Since February, he's founded a
startup called http://kinortec.com. When
asked what he’d like us to know about it, Kahlil replied: “The new start-up was inspired by a bank executive who
believed my approach to IT Consulting warranted a larger platform.”
Congratulations, Kahlil!

Speaking of vids, if you’ve never been to Hawai’i--land of the cultural melting pot--here’s a little taste for you. We call it Hapa Luau. Hapa feasting!
Until we meet again, please visit our Watermelon Sushi website and join
us at Hip Hapa Homeez on Facebook for some pretty darn interesting discussions.
Your Hip Hapa,
Yayoi
