Next Episode: Minoru Yasui: A Civil Rights Hero
This month: Jenna Yokoyama interviews Canaan Schlesinger about seeming racially ambiguous. Then, Alan Montecillo looks into the aftermath of NYPD Officer Peter Liang's conviction. Finally, we look into Japanese internment during WWII: why it happened, how it happened, and the civil rights heroes who fought against it — including Oregon's very own Minoru Yasui.
Music this month by Dave Depper, Blue Dot Sessions, Dana Boul, Podington Bear, Sergey Cheremisinov, David Szesztay, and CHOPS.
