To Our Sons and Daughters

Japanese American families

14 pages. Pages 52-65 from "United States-Japan and younger generation photos." The document is C.S. Miyazaki's reflection on the aspirations of the 'first' generation of Japanese American citizens (Issei), and what they charge the second generation (Nisei) with upholding. This includes things like respecting elders and economic ambitions. Miyazaki advocates a Japanese American identity based upon loyalty to America but centered around what he identifies as Japanese values.
