UVic student film considers intergenerational effects of Japanese-Canadian internment
0
Nagasaki recently screened the film for the Victoria Historical Society, where she also spoke about the history of Japanese-Canadian internment during the Second World War and the impacts it had on subsequent generations.
Filmed in conjunction with her honours research on Yonsei and Gosei (fourth- and fifth-generation) Japanese-Canadian identities, In Our Grandparents’ Kitchens shows the potency of food as a means of cultural connection. As part of her research, Nagasaki hosted “food gatherings” with other young Japanese Canadians, where participants would collaborate to prepare a number of Japanese-Canadian dishes.
