An Inheritance of Activism
Nikkei National Museum ShopA Tribute to the Founders: National Japanese Canadian Citizen's Association | National Association of Japanese Canadians
In 2022 the Toronto NAJC hosted a Human Rights Symposium to celebrate the 75th Anniversary of the NAJC/NJCCA, founded in Toronto in 1947. This book is a tribute that invites readers to recognize the several role models that prevailed and rebuilt the Japanese Canadian community following the end of WWII. The remarkable leadership of each individual is recorded altogether with respect and remembering their advocacy for justice.
