This year's NEJACL Day of Remembrance program
will explore how taiko drumming became a source
of transformative change to redefine identity and
recognize the power of rhythm and social patterns
to produce a unified, collective force to enact social
change. This event will feature 94-year old Dr. Yutaka
Kobayashi's experience as an incarcerated Japanese
American during WWII, Kanoko Kamata on social
movements (Harvard Weatherhead Center), Karen
Young of The Genki Spark, and performances by
The Genki Spark and Odaiko New England. See
information on the right sidebar.
