Hawaii, the 50th state of the United States, carries the nickname of being "the true melting pot." The composition of various migrant cultures from around the world and the host culture native to its lands, Hawaii over time has a 2-pronged respectful approach of allowing origin cultures to coexist with that of a new emerging culture. In order to better understand the effect of this transition from segregation to combined living, and its overall impact on some of the people of Hawaii today, we must first look back to the experience of the cultural and personal identity, which developed from those collective living situations of the old sugar plantation camps. Little is known from direct experience of how the migrant plantation workers from various parts of the world were able to coexist with limited to no overlap in communication, lifestyles, values and beliefs, but nevertheless were able to work, play and live together in Hawaii. This research study intended to provide an opportunity to gain a deeper understanding as to the experience of cultural and personal identity development in a collective setting like those of the old sugar plantation camps; and it explored how these migrant plantation workers were able to coexist under such conditions and its overall impact on those individuals' lives, then and now. The main research question guiding this qualitative inquiry was, "What is the experience of cultural and personal identity in a collective living situation?" Through a case study methodology, this inquiry was pursued. This qualitative methodology studied 8 participants who had first-hand experience of cultural and personal identity in a collective living situation in Hawaii. The specific collective living setting identified was a sugar plantation camp in the State of Hawaii, where the participants resided between 1930s-1950s. A within-case analysis and cross-case analysis was conducted through a thematic analysis. The within-case analysis revealed emerging themes: (a) the size and sense of family was as large as the community; (b) there was no identity or label greater than the community; (c) plantation living (collective living) fostered resiliency; and (d) foundational values and long-lasting relationships form. The cross-case analysis revealed two themes: (a) triad approach: Three institutions at various levels of everyday functioning promoted and nurtured culture and personal identity, and (b) collective living requires basic elements for overall success.
