?THROUGH GENERATIONS: JAPANESE AMERICAN AND CANADIAN STORIES? Shorts Program
From Issei (first generation) to Yonsei (fourth generation) and beyond, Japanese Americans and Japanese Canadians have persisted and resisted, forever shaping the histories of their families, communities, and cities. From groundbreaking civil cases to striking art, these shorts explore the ways big and small that Japanese Americans and Japanese Canadians have found voice and healing.
