Twelve Foreign Men

In our final episode of Consolation Prize, we return to 1844 Hawai'i, where we look at another case involving vice consul William Hooper. In his efforts to gain power for the United States, Hooper may have made the lives of actual Americans more difficult. Hear how Hooper got involved in a legal case about a sexual assault, to the detriment of the accused, but to the ultimate benefit of the United States. This episode was produced by Abby Mullen and Kris Stinson. Show notes available at consolationprize.rrchnm.org.
