	The Rafu Shimpo - L.A. Japanese Daily News
		The term Hapa is a Hawaiian word meaning “half” or “portion.” Used in the phrase Hapa haole, it originally referred to people who were half Hawaiian and half Caucasian—usually in a derogatory way implying impurity.
		Over time, its pejorative connotation diminished and the word Hapa came to be used both in Hawaii and on the continent as an identifier for multiracial people of partial Asian/Pacific Islander ancestry.
		Now used as a term of pride by an ever-expanding hapa community, it fills a void intrinsic to a country that does not readily recognize multiraciality.
