Homeless in Hawaiʻi: Haleʻiwa Beach Park

Annie Pau of Haleiwa-Beach Park parking lot. 2011

In 2011, my Dad Ed Greevy visited Haleʻiwa Beach Park to document the homeless living there. He captured these images of Annie Pau.

As per this essay by Anne Keala Kelly, “Portrait. Marie Beltran and Annie PauResistance to Empire, Erasure, and Selling Out”:

“Annie Pau was living in the Haleʻiwa Boat Harbor parking lot at the time this photo was taken in 2011. Months later, she died of a stroke during one of the Honolulu Police Department’s sweeps of homeless people from public parks and streets, in preparation for the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation leaders’ conference on Oʻahu in November 2011.”
