The Hanapēpē Massacre occurred on September 9, 1924, when a dispute amongst Filipino strike organizers in Hanapēpē, Kaua'i, resulted in a violent exchange between local police officers and Filipinos. The conflict began when two Ilocano youth, allegedly breaking the Filipino-led labor strike, were detained and harassed by a group of Visayans at the Hanapepe strike camp.
