I just read an article on The Rafu Shimpo website. It was contributed to the Rafu and published under their Vox Populi series. The author is a Sansei from Oakland who is the co-author of an upcoming book about the history of civil liberties in California.

After 9/11, the Japanese American WWII experience became relevant again. Now, another older JA issue has a connection to current events -- the issue of gay marriages recalls the antimiscegenation laws that legally prevented Nikkei from marrying Caucasians in California and elsewhere in the U.S.
