This is Kohala | PBS Hawaiʻi Panel Discussion
The Kohala Oral History Project
began in 2019 when Lucas Manuel-
Scheibe recorded the stories of his
80-year-old grandmother, Martina
Manuel, a long-time resident of
Kohala. With the help of his mother,
Jocelyn Manuel, Lucas set out to
film more of the “old timers.”
The interviews were assembled
for the film This is Kohala. In
it, you’ll hear the stories about
growing up in the plantation
camps and the simple life that was enjoyed.
PBS Hawaiʻi streamed an advanced screener of This is Kohala. This is the live panel discussion that followed, moderated by Chuck Parker, with producer Jocelyn Manuel, producer and editor Bryan Campbell, and featured guest Joseph Carvalho.
