The hula was banned in Hawaii during the late 19th century, particularly after the overthrow of the Hawaiian monarchy in 1893. The ban was part of a broader effort by missionaries and colonial authorities to suppress Hawaiian culture and promote Western values, viewing hula as immoral and pagan. This prohibition aimed to erase traditional practices and beliefs, but the hula later experienced a revival as part of a larger movement to reclaim and celebrate Hawaiian identity.
