Udgivelsesdato: Jul 28, 2023

In April 2023, a memorial was held to remember James Hatsuaki Wakasa, a Japanese immigrant who was shot dead in a wartime internment camp on US soil 80 years ago. The killing of the 63-year-old caused an uproar among the internees at the time. But the episode was largely forgotten until a Japanese American journalist investigates Wakasa's life and death. Her findings lead to a surprising discovery of a stone believed to have been demolished forever.
