Yasushi Nakahara — Tue, 09 Jun 2009 21:17:30 -0700

I came to this site for surfing.
Kiso Yasukochi is my great grand father.
Just before I received e-mail from my relatives in US,
Kiso's youngest son, Fred Yasukochi got in medical trouble.
I'm now deeply impressed to watch this Photo.

I don't know about relationship with my great gran-pa and your family,
however you and your family will enjoy your life forever.

God bless you all

Thanks for posting this

Long time ago, when June Aoki worked at Rossevelt Adult Community School in LA, she helped me to make it thru High School. I am desperate to get in touch with her. My name is Misael Cruz Godínez. Now I live in Mexico City. I really need to say thank you to this woman who after 22 years of having met her, and not having seen her again since then, she is still inspiration in my heart and my mind. God bless her.

thanks for responding!

Thanks for responding to my question. I'm so impressed with how prolific you seem! I wish I had the time, energy, and commitment to do more. Working here at the Museum and on the Discover Nikkei project keeps me so busy. I haven't done much artwork in years now. I keep thinking I need to start again, but keep putting it off.

Here's some of my older works: discovernikkei.org/nikkeialbum/node/538

Crackers

Victor Nishio Yasuoka — Thu, 21 Aug 2008 18:57:30 -0700

Hello.

Thank you for your comment.

Thery are actual crackers; some have 7 to 8 years in good visual conservation. This is an old serie, this september 2nd. I will begin my new exposition cicle called LUZ Y FUEGO (light and fire), which will have artistic lamps and, also, a serie calle "galletas" (crackers), a new ones preserved in other sinthetic material.

I will be glad to comment to everything your curiosity may arise and to respond every questions you may have.

Victor.

Interesting artwork!

I like this collection of your artwork! It's really interesting and fun. Unfortunately, I don't know Spanish so I can't read your introduction text. I was just wondering, do you use actual crackers and bread, or did you make reproductions of them?

Thanks for sharing your art!

Me too!!!

I am half-Japanese and half-Mexican, too. My mom was born and raised in Mexico city, and my dad was raised in East Los Angeles. I am so glad you posted, it's so awesome to find other people that are the same ethnicity as me...

Mitsuru memories

Thanks for posting the website address.

If you have any anecdotes, info, or special memories of Mitsuru Grill, would be great if you could share! I end up going there for lunch at least once a month or more now. Working in Little Tokyo, I eat in the area restaurants often, and it's nice going there sometimes because they have such a variety of food - not just all Japanese food. Oftentimes I'll get the bacon tomato avocado sandwich with either fries or green salad. Or, I like checking out their specials. I usually will get the corned beef cabbage when it's available. It's just like how my mom makes it for St. Patrick's Day. =)

Diner? Sports bar? or a Sushi bar?

Mitsuru Grill is a restaurant that is doing business for more than 30 years. They have variety of food, and it is one of the popular Japanese restaurant in Little Tokyo. For sports lover, they have a HD TV, and this place can be a Denny's Sports bar, and a sushi bar at the same time. They have a website at www.mitsurusushiandgrill.com. They have their menu posted up so it is much easier to check out the website before you go there.

Interesting to see how

Interesting to see how ragtag the old sears parts wear they had to make do with back then. My great grandmother ended up in one of these camps. I’ve been reading her dairy and trying to understand her life more.

Thank you for viewing. A

Thank you so much for sharing this collection! I really enjoyed the wonderful photos and learned a lot in the process about the dekasegi population in Japan.
