The World War II incarceration brought Japanese American farmers to Colorado, where they have had an outsized impact. Now those farms are at risk of disappearing as the Nisei generation passes on. coloradosun.com/2023/07/02/jap…

Starting next week, I'll be teaching, for the first time, a class on the literature of Japanese American incarceration. The reading list is 100% work by survivors and descendants of the prisons, detention centers, and concentration camps. [Image: from Kiku Hughes's Displacement]:

Anna May Wong was an early champion of strong, diverse and inclusive representation in film. To honor her legacy, the U.S. Mint will begin shipping coins featuring Wong on a quarter dollar, the first U.S. currency to feature an Asian American.

There's never been a complete list of the people of Japanese descent incarcerated during WWII. So a team of scholars & volunteers scoured 10's of 1000's of historical documents to come up with all the names — a way to give them back their identities. laist.com/news/wwii-monu…

We just toured the hospital and had a great tour from Sam Mihara, a former child incarceree. He spoke about his family’s experiences with the medical services at Heart Mountain. Here Mr. Mihara is speaking about the preservation efforts of one of the buildings. @HeartMountainWY
