Dr. Christine Yano (UHM Anthropology) will lead the conversation about the book’s key themes and findings as well as the research and writing process.

This talk is sponsored by the American Studies, History, and Music Departments, and the Center for Japanese Studies. It is free and open to the public. For disability access, please contact the Center at 956-2665 or cjs@hawaii.edu
