Nima of the month:
May 2015
I'm the Community Relations Director at Angel Island Immigration Station Foundation. We are looking for Japanese immigration stories, in particular those through Angel Island from 1910-1940. I have also contributed a number of Nikkei stories to DN about Japanese immigrants and American-born citizens who were arrested shortly after Pearl Harbor and detained on Angel Island in 1942 and 1943 before being sent to Department of Justice and US Army camps including Santa Fe, NM and many others. These are also being posted here at DN. Please contact me at gdin@aiisf.org if you have stories to share.
