Roots, Removal and Resistance: Japanese Americans in Berkeley

Roots, Removal and Resistance was on display at the Berkeley Historical Society and Museum from October 13, 2024 to August 30, 2025. This dynamic exhibit was curated by a team of community curators as well as longtime BHSM volunteers. BHSM is grateful to the wider Japanese American community of Berkeley, who contributed photographs, interviews, and the materials that were on display.
