I believe in a future where we’re not held hostage by catastrophic threats. It’s up to us to create it, and today you can take the first step with people around the world by folding and sharing a paper crane. Please join me! #CranesForOurFuture

Hiroshima❤️ Never Forget Today we honor the countless victims of the atomic bomb. As historian Naoko Wake once wrote, "[the] hibakusha's history did not end after 1945; it continues to this day, urging us to confront many unending questions."

On August 9, 1945, the US dropped an atomic bomb on the city of Nagasaki. On this anniversary, we shall remember the past so as not to repeat it. May Peace Prevail on Earth ❤️🕊️ #NoMoreHibakusha

Our hearts go out to Maui and everyone affected by the wildfires 💔

Today, on the 35th anniversary of the Civil Liberties Act of 1988, my office formally apologized for its past role in the deprivation of Japanese Americans’ civil liberties during WWII.   The suffering caused by these actions is incalculable and the moral injustice is undeniable.

FYI - Nisei Week events this weekend may be subject to cancellation due to Hurricane Hilary. More updates to come!
