The Children of the Camps - Documentary Film and Discussion May 9, 2009

Join us for a free screening of The Children of the Camps followed by a discussion led by producer/ project director Dr. Satsuki Ina, Ph.D. This powerful documentary shares the experiences, cultural and familial issues, and the long internalized grief and shame felt by six Japanese Americans who were only children when they were incarcerated in concentration camps during World War II. The film vividly portrays their personal journey to heal the deep wounds they suffered from this experience. Dr. Ina is a Professor Emeritus in the Department of Counselor Education, School of Education, California State University, Sacramento.
