Join author Ken Mochizuki and illustrator Kiku Hughes for a virtual book preview of the new graphic novel, Those Who Helped Us: Assisting Japanese Americans During the War.
This story is told through the eyes of a basketball-loving Sumiko Tanaka, an 11-year-old, as she adjusts to life during that era and highlights the actions and experiences of Sumiko's neighbors and friends left behind in Seattle.
Co-published by the Wing Luke Museum and Chin Music Press, this project was funded, in part, by a grant from the U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service, Japanese American Confinement Sites Grant Program.
