Midnight in Broad Daylight A Japanese American Family Caught Between Two Worlds by Pamela Rotner Sakamoto

Join us to discuss and explore Japanese American Families divided by the war.

A true story about a Japanese American family with brothers divided between the U.S. and Japan during World War II - about "family, separationg, divided loyalities, love, loss and reconciliation." The book is an indelible portrail of a resilient family, and a scathing exmaination of racism and xenophobia."
