Exploration of Intergenerational Memories – How Do We Relate?
A gently guided exploration of intergenerational and collective trauma and healing through the Japanese Canadian uprooting experience.

- What can we do to contribute to its healing in ourselves and in our community?
- What can we do when we experience or witness mistreatment because of race, gender, culture, age or status?
