Details:

CAPI partner "Landscapes of Injustice" is presenting three free live performances of the "Japanese Problem" Dec 4th at UVic (11am, 12:30pm, and 2pm)

In 1942, over 8,000 Canadians were detained in barns at Hastings Park —the effects, and the memories haunt us to this day.

JAPANESE PROBLEM is a title derived from the nomenclature of WWII, but containing in it the understanding that the citizens affected at the time were neither Japanese--they were overwhelmingly legal residents/citizens of Canada, nor problematic--with zero verifiable connections to activities against Canada.
