Manzanar Baseball Project

An old friend of mine is spearheading this awesome project. Although the Japanese side of my family came to the US over post WW2 I have many friends, co-workers, in-laws, Nisei Athletic Union teammates, whose families or themselves were imprisoned in the camps. One friend was even born in the Tule Lake internment camp.

He also has a gofundme page but i feel awkward posting a solicitation for money. It’s easy enough to find by googling Manzanar Baseball if you’re inclined to donate.
