Yuji Ichioka (1936-2002) New Book

Next month UCLA will celebrate the life of pioneering Asian American historian Yuji Ichioka (1936-2002), as well as the publication of his final work, Before Internment: Essays in Prewar Japanese American History by Yuji Ichioka; Edited by Gordon H. Chang and Eiichiro Azuma.

Ichioka was a real inspiration. It was an honor to talk with him a few times over the years. Professor Eiichiro Azuma captured many people's thoughts in his touching tribute in the UCLA Asian American Studies journal Amerasia a few years back.
