Research Abstract |
In 2007, I published a book, "Internment and Identity Shift : Japan and the USA Through the Eyes of a Nisei and Sansei." The highlight of my research in 2008 was a trip to Brazil. I tried to pursue the relationship between the countries (or places) that immigrants left and their immigrated countries. I presented the results of my research at a conference entitled, "Japan and Japanese America : Connections Across the Pacific Rim" at U.C.Berkeley in 2009.
