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.
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.
Duke is my 3rd cousin his middle name is my last name Alden namahoe Paoa i we born on oahu queens hospital then my parents moved to Maui wn I was 3rz old where I've lived most of my life n still live on maui today # ALOHA TO ALL , MAUI ,NO ,KA OI .
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.

I bet you have fascinating stories about the Duke. He was such a gifted person.
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.
Aloha Rudi
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.
