  6. Sumo wrestling has a long history in Seattle, dating back to the first generation of Japanese American immigrants to the area. After Japanese incarceration, Seattle's sumo community didn't recover. Eighty-plus years later, Rain City Sumo has changed that.

  7. Mayor Bruce Harrell has helped shape Seattle for more than a decade. Before that, he was shaped by his family's history in Seattle, which includes the WWII incarnation of Japanese-Americans, small business, biracial challenges, and flowers.

  8. I have a recurring annual calendar appointment for March 16. Today is the 102nd anniversary of Comox-Alberni MP A.W. Neill's first speech in his 21 year career in the House of Commons (1921-45) where he called for a "white British Columbia”.

    Neill was a white supremacist, anti-Asian racist, and one of the loudest voices for Japanese Internment. He was also an Indian Agent dealing with First Nations and Residential Schools on Vancouver Island's West Coast.

    In 2021 his name was removed from a local school but he remains honoured with a street name.

    I will continue reminding people of this until that honour is removed.

    (A full report about him starts on page 82 of the City of Port Alberni Agenda from January 23, 2017)

  13. Today marks the commemoration of EO 9066, a significant event that, in conjunction with the Korematsu v. United States SCOTUS case, authorized the confinement of Japanese-American individuals in locations like the Amache Internment Camp situated near Grenada, Colorado.

  14. Kishi Bashi’s record “Music from the Song Film: Omoiyari” was on my best of 2023 list. It’s truly a gem. The film, “Omoiyari,” tells a story about being a minority in America. Specifically focusing on Japanese internment during WWII.

  15. Today I remember that because of the inexcusable act of a government thousands of miles away, good citizens were removed from their homes, their belongings and lands sold, they and their families packed into rail cars and shipped away to camps. Many did hard labour. All were deprived of dignity and freedom. Local politicians who championed it, benefited from it for decades.

    Germany?

    No. Canada and the USA imposing Japanese Internment. After the war, many were forced to go to Japan, even if they were not born there or never wanted to return.

    War is injustice, pain, racism, bigotry, and suffering. Always.
