Original Note:
While speaking Hawaiian was never legally banned, it was banned in schools from 1896 until 1986. There have been many claims of children being punished for speaking Hawaiian. While not official, it is not unfair to say the US and it's people unofficially banned it. https://www.hawaiipublicschools.org/TeachingAndLearning/StudentLearning/HawaiianEducation/Pages/History-of-the-Hawaiian-Education-program.aspx
