  • CRAFTING SURVIVAL in JAPANESE AMERICAN CONCENTRATION CAMPS Jane E. Dusse
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: ARTFUL IDENTIFICATIONS: CRAFTING SURVIVAL IN JAPANESE AMERICAN CONCENTRATION CAMPS Jane E. Dusselier, Doctor of Philosophy, 2005 Dissertation directed by: Associate Professor, Seung-kyung Kim Department of Women’s Studies “Artful Identifications” offers three meanings of internment art. First, internees remade locations of imprisonment into livable places of survival. Inside places were remade as internees responded to degraded living conditions by creating furniture with discarded apple crates, cardboard, tree branches and stumps, scrap pieces of wood left behind by government carpenters, and wood lifted from guarded lumber piles. Having addressed the material conditions of their living units, internees turned their attention to aesthetic matters by creating needle crafts, wood carvings, ikebana, paintings, shell art, and kobu. Dramatic changes to outside spaces of “assembly centers” and concentration camps were also critical to altering hostile settings into survivable landscapes My second meaning positions art as a means of making connections, a framework offered with the hope of escaping utopian models of community building which overemphasize the development of common beliefs, ideas, and practices that unify people into easily surveilled groups. “Making Connections” situates the process of individuals identifying with larger collectivities in the details of everyday life, a complicated and layered process that often remains invisible to us. By sewing clothes for each other, creating artificial flowers and lapel pins as gifts, and participating in classes and exhibits, internees addressed their needs for maintaining and developing connections. “Making Connections” advances perhaps the broadest possible understanding of identity formation based on the idea of employing diverse art forms to sustain already developed relationships and creating new attachments in the context of displacement.

Oba San Francisco, California Fall Term 2017 Copyright by Richard J. Oba 2017 CERTIFICATION OF APPROVAL I certify that I have read “The Tanforan Memorial Project: How Art and History Intersected” by Richard J. Oba, and that in my opinion this work meets the criteria for approving a thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree Master of Arts in Humanities at San Francisco State University. I Saul Steier, Associate Professor, Humanities “The Tanforan Memorial Project: How Art and History Intersected” Richard J. Oba San Francisco 2017 ABSTRACT Many Japanese Americans realize that their incarceration during WWII was unjust and patently unconstitutional. But many other American citizens are often unfamiliar with this dark chapter of American history. The work of great visual artists like Ansel Adams, Dorothea Lange, Chiura Obata, Mine Okubo, and others, who bore witness to these events convey their horror with great immediacy and human compassion. Their work allows the American society to visualize how the Japanese Americans were denied their constitutional rights in the name of national security. Without their visual images, the chronicling of this historical event would have faded into obscurity. I certify that the Abstract is a correct representation of the content of this Thesis ACKNOWLEDGEMENT I wish to acknowledge the support and love of my wife, Sidney Suzanne Pucek, May 16, 1948- October 16, 2016.

  • Captive 5 Wakai.Pdf
    BIOGRAPHICAL SUMMARY: Masayoshi Wakai Masayoshi Wakai was born in Bingo, Hiroshima-ken, Japan, in 1916. He is the oldest of seven children born to Henry Gengo and Ryu Wakai. He, his sister Mary, and parents arrived in Hawai‘i in 1921. His father taught at Japanese-language schools on Kaua‘i and established the Japanese Congregational Church in Kapa‘a, Kaua‘i. Masayoshi Wakai, a student at Kapa‘a Grammar School and Kaua‘i High School, graduated in 1935. He earned a bachelor’s degree in sociology from the University of Hawai‘i in 1939. He enrolled at the Pacific School of Religion in Berkeley, California. While still a student there, he received news of the attack on Pearl Harbor. From April to September 1942, he was held at Tanforan, a race track converted to a camp for the incarceration of Japanese Americans. There, he received his diploma. In September 1942, he was incarcerated at Topaz War Relocation Center. At this camp, he was ordained a minister. About a year later, with the sponsorship of Dr. Albert W. Palmer, president of Chicago Theological Seminary and former minister at Central Union Church in Honolulu, Masayoshi Wakai gained his release. He went to Chicago where he was at seminary, taught Japanese language, worked for the YMCA, and counseled youths. He married Helen Miyoshi in 1945. Returning to Hawai‘i in 1946, he has been a minister, counselor, educational specialist, and missionary/teacher (in Japan). He and his wife, Helen, raised two sons. 229 230 Tape Nos. 55-39-1-10 and 55-40-1-10 ORAL HISTORY INTERVIEW with Masayoshi Wakai (MW) December 13, 2010 Honolulu, O‘ahu BY: Warren Nishimoto (WN) and Michi Kodama-Nishimoto (MK) WN: Okay, this is an interview with Masayoshi Wakai—Rev.

  • "Ersatz As the Day Is Long": Japanese Popular
    “ERSATZ AS THE DAY IS LONG”: JAPANESE POPULAR MUSIC, THE STRUGGLE FOR AUTHNETICITY, AND COLD WAR ORIENTALISM Robyn P. Perry A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS May 2021 Committee: Walter Grunden, Advisor Jeremy Wallach © 2021 Robyn P. Perry All Rights Reserve iii ABSTRACT Walter Grunden, Advisor During the Allied Occupation of Japan, Supreme Commander for the Allied Powers (SCAP) Douglas MacArthur set forth on a mission to Americanize Japan. One way SCAP decided this could be done was by utilizing forms of media that were already popular in Japan, particularly the radio. The Far East Network (FEN), a network of American military radio and television stations in Japan, Okinawa, Guam, and the Philippines, began to broadcast American country & western music. By the early 1950s, Japanese country & western ensembles would begin to form, which initiated the evolution toward modern J-pop. During the first two decades of the Cold War, performers of various postwar subgenres of early Japanese rock (or J-rock), including country & western, rockabilly, kayōkyoku, eleki, and Group Sounds, would attempt to break into markets in the West. While some of these performers floundered, others were able to walk side-by-side with several Western greats or even become stars in their own right, such as when Kyu Sakamoto produced a number one hit in the United States with his “Sukiyaki” in 1963. The way that these Japanese popular music performers were perceived in the West, primarily in the United States, was rooted in centuries of Orientalist preconceptions about Japanese people, Japanese culture, and Japan that had recently been recalibrated to reflect the ethos of the Cold War.
