AAPI Authors Humanizing Our History: A Conversation with Julie Otsuka and Tom Ikeda
Event: https://fb.me/e/2WrFyOEof
The AAPI Coalition of Wisconsin invites you and your friends to a special virtual event with Julie Otsuka in conversation with Tom Ikeda. Otsuka is the author of the award-winning novel “When the Emperor Was Divine” which tells the story about the incarceration of a Japanese American family during World War II.
In this webinar, Otsuka will be interviewed by Tom Ikeda, the founding executive director of Densho, an online archive and public history organization that has documented stories, since its founding in 1996, about Japanese Americans incarcerated during WWII. They will discuss the art of writing the novel itself as well as Otsuka and Ikeda’s family’s experiences in the WWII camps.
Join us on Sunday, October 16, at 4:00-5:00 p.m. (Central time).
