Immersed in Japanese culture and language

My older brothers and sister, they also liked the culture. They would buy magazines, records, they would enjoy listening, and at the same time, I would look at the magazine and enjoy listening to music. They were showing Japanese movie two different places in San Francisco, and I'd go every Friday and Saturday. One Friday I'll go this theater, Saturday I'm going to go to the other theater. It was very much Japanese-y, more than being American. Because my father and mother at home would speak Japanese. My father said, "You have a Japanese face? You learn to speak Japanese." Still up here in my mind.

Entrevista

Jimmy Naganuma nació en Callao, Perú a padres Issei en 1936. Tenía ocho años cuando su familia fue obligada a abordar un barco, para ser encarcelados en Crystal City, Texas, durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Permanecieron allí hasta después de que terminó la guerra, sin ningún lugar adonde ir. Pudieron salir gracias al patrocinio de un reverendo en San Francisco, California, donde pudieron encontrar trabajo y un lugar donde vivir. (Junio ​​2018)
