In honor of Densho’s 30th anniversary, we wanted to share a special message from our staff. These are 30 words reflecting our mission and symbolically representing our 30 years of existence. This statement captures our commitment to the past, present, and future.

For the seventh installment of our 30 Stories for 30 Years series, Mary Hirata reflects on her mother’s journey to the United States as a picture bride in the early 1900s.

“We didn’t have separate rooms. It was like a regular barrack, we all slept next to each other.”

On Martin Luther King Jr. Day in 2016, a moment of protest became a moment of invitation.

For the fifth installment of our “30 Stories for 30 Years” series, Mutsu Homma reflects on her time at Amache (Granada) and an encounter she never forgot: a soldier’s question, “Are you a human being?”

As part of Densho’s “30 Stories for 30” Years series, this segment from Mike Murase’s oral history centers on the sentiment that inspired him to help found Gidra, the groundbreaking Asian American publication, which is now viewed as an introduction to Asian American activism.

“I think what I felt as a child is they hate us so much, they don’t even want to see us as we go through towns.”

We are heartbroken by the passing of Kyoko Nancy Oda, a giant in the Nikkei community and one of our oral history narrators.

During his first Christmas at the Minidoka concentration camp in Idaho in 1942, Tsuguo “Ike” Ikeda remembers that the holiday spirit still found a way to shine.

Eiichi Edward Sakauye filmed life at the Heart Mountain concentration camp in Wyoming between 1943 and 1945 on 8mm film. Decades later, he revisited that footage, offering voice-over reflections that bring these images into fuller view.

Putin called Xi Jinping his “long-time good friend” ahead of his visit to China. Trade between Russia and China continues to grow, having long surpassed the $200-bln mark. 😈

美联储前主席鲍威尔在接受肯尼迪图书馆基金会颁发的肯尼迪奖时，警告政治权力可能被滥用。 他说：作为美国人，我们受到一种信念的驱使，那就是自由与民主极大地促进了人类自我价值的实现。 维护和巩固我们自身民主的工作，可能会充满喧嚣，有时令人沮丧，甚至陷入四面楚歌的境地。在繁荣的民主政体中，党派之间的政治分歧是正常的，甚至可以说是必不可少的。 但是，在捍卫定义我们国家的更高原则上，我们应当团结一致。其中首要的原则就是对法治的尊重。 正如约翰·亚当斯所写：“我们的政府是一个法治的政府，而非人治的政府。”
