Bitter Injustice 2022

Dr. David Sakura, one of our keynote speakers, was interviewed by Monica Hernandez WMUR. He was imprisoned with his family (and thousands more innocent people) during WWII solely because of their J*panese heritage. Those who were able to meet him in person at Plaistow Public Library were deeply moved by his story. If you missed him, give this interview a spin. It’s powerful stuff. Thanks WMUR-TV for helping us spread the word about this Bitter Injustice.

New Hampshire man recalls entering J*panese internment camp at age 6 During World War II, tens of thousands of American citizens were forced into detention centers around the country because of their J*panese ancestry. David Sakura, now of Thornton, was one of those citizens.
