DESCRIPTION:Nikkei community newspapers served an important role for a cent
 ury as the glue that held together groups of immigrants with news and info
 rmation about their communities as well as the latest from Japan. Later\, 
 their place in the community evolved as they served English-speaking Nisei
  and Sansei. But in recent years\, the media industry has been in an uphea

 us as we celebrate the history\, discuss the current state\, and ponder th
 e future of Nikkei community newspapers in America.\n\nModerator: Gil Asak
