Journalist producer, Tom Coffman presents comparisons on the treatment of Japanese Americans in Hawaii and the mainland US in the aftermath of Pearl Harbor. With war fears rising, a Council for Inter-racial Unity organized in Honolulu in 1939 in support of Hawaii’s large Japanese-ancestry community. On December 7, 1941, they sprang into action. A behind-the-scenes battle for justice and equality- reaching as far as the White House- set Hawaii on a different course (2007, 60 minutes).
