This seminar is part of the Little Tokyo Service Center’s ongoing efforts to build bridges between diverse Southern California communities, focusing on the Japanese and Japanese American communities. Southern California is home to the largest Japanese and Japanese American population, collectively referred to as Nikkei, in the mainland United States. Within the Nikkei community, there are significant social, cultural and language differences between more assimilated Japanese Americans, who are descendants of pre-World War II immigrants, and the Shin-Issei, or post-World War II Japanese immigrants, who include naturalized American citizens, permanent U.S. residents and short-term expatriates.
