Doi, Lisa (12/13/2022)

Lisa Doi, a Yonsei born and raised in Chicago, discusses the development of the Japanese American redress movement and the ongoing process of intergenerational healing and repair in the Japanese American community. She reflects on the importance of testifying, sharing stories, listening, participating in challenging conversations, and acts of protest as part of the reparative process. She discusses the efforts of organizations like Tsuru for Solidarity and the National Nikkei Reparations Coalition in support of Black reparations and HR 40 and shares her view of programs like the Kansha Project, Japanese American Confinement Sites grants, and Nikkei Uprising group as ongoing legacies of the redress movement.
