As we continue our deep dive into WWII and its harsh reality, we have a serious discussion with two women who lived through it: Mary Kamidoi is an activist and long-time employee of Ford Motor Company who lives in Detroit. At age 11, Mary was sent with her family to a Japanese Internment Camp.We also hear from Keiko Hahn, a Japanese-born "War Bride," who moved to Lima, Ohio, with her American husband since 1952. Keiko is the subject of the documentary "War Brides," which was directed by her nephew (we also hear from Matthew Neeley, President of the Lima Sister Cities Association, which facilitated the documentary). Joining in the discussion is Toledo Opera's Leah Whitaker.
