On January 25, as part of this year’s celebration of the 50th Anniversary of Asian American Studies at UC Davis, the Asian American Studies Department held a celebration to honor the life and legacy of Dr. Isao Fujimoto, a founding member of the department.

ESJF was invited to speak at the panel The Future of Asian American Studies and Advocacy at UC Davis. Sung discussed ESJF’s commitment to advancing educational and social justice through teaching the history and issues surrounding Japanese military sexual slavery. Faculty members, students, and guests listened attentively and asked thoughtful questions about the complex nature of the issues.
​
We thank the Asian American Studies community at UC Davis for supporting our work and for their long history of educating students and the greater community on numerous important causes.

Screening of Korean Schools in Japan, Los Angeles

1/5/2020

The screening of Korean Schools in Japan in Los Angeles on 1/4 & 1/5 was a great educational opportunity that brought together both Japanese and Korean communities. The audience learned about the brutal reality of educational injustice, which is historically rooted in discrimination against Korean children in Japan. After each screening, the audience had an in-depth discussion on how a fair, equitable education is a basic human right, and on the history of discrimination against Korean children in Japan. Some attendees shared their personal experiences growing up as Japanese and Korean nationals in Japan. People were deeply concerned about education being used as a weapon to enforce political agendas.

​Korean Schools in Japan
is the first installment of the Pacific Asian Nuclear-Free Peace Alliance’s film series--War, Imperialism, and Gender. Films including Boy Soldiers: The Secret War in Okinawa, Fukushima Speaks, and Soseongri will follow.
