HIROMURA​,​ Seki

After being in a camp in Idaho, I came to New York after the war. I love to travel, so every year I visit countries all over Europe. People keep telling me, “Come back to Japan, come back,” but Japan isn’t such a good place anymore, so I don’t go back. This interview is part of the DMHJNY's new exhibit Issei: Portraits Of The First-Generation Japanese New Yorkers which is on view here: https://www.historyofjapaneseinny.org/issei/
