Black and white silent amateur films, 1926-1933, of Japanese American communities in Los Angeles, Stockton, and Tacoma by Buddhist minister, Rev. Sensho Sasaki.

This segment, dated 1932 in a title card, shows two of Rev. Sasaki's sons playing in the yard of the parsonage at the Tacoma Buddhist Church; the older boy plays with chewing gum; the younger child throws up his arms (00:49).
