Holding Fast The Dream captures the African American experience in Hawai‘i; the achievements and successes, the history and challenges, and the development of a strong and vibrant community.
These are stories untold and ignored by history, but essential to understanding the richness and scope of Hawai‘i's diverse peoples.
Production now is underway for an anticipated release in 2008.
