Resistance at Tule Lake Q&A with Henry Kaku

This documentary tells the long-suppressed story of incarcerated Japanese Americans who defied the government by refusing to swear unconditional loyalty to the U.S.

Henry Kaku is a Judo instructor in Petaluma – he holds a 6th degree black belt. He is also an Origami instructor and was here at last year’s AAPI Heritage month celebration to teach us the art of Origami.

Henry was born in Japan. The rest of his family were American citizens who were forcibly relocated and incarcerated in American internment camps in California during World War II. At the end of the War, Henry’s family was deported to Japan and their citizenship was revoked. Henry shared his family’s story at the Japanese History & Culture event last September.
