Thinking Historically About Japanese Americans with the Japanese American National Museum

In this episode, we are thinking historically with Lynn Yamasaki, Director of Education at the Japanese American National Museum (JANM). Yamasaki helps us think historically about Japanese American history in Los Angeles as well as the broader Japanese American experience in the United States, especially in and around World War II. She also talks through the ways that JANM preserves Japanese American history. Thinking Historically About brings history to life. In each episode, expert scholars unpack the essential questions students should be asking as they challenge how we understand the past and its relevance today.
