DESCRIPTION:The Ito Sisters Reveals a Little-Known Chapter of the Early Japanese 
 American Experience\n\nThe Osher Marin JCC is excited to host a special 
 screening of the documentary film The Ito Sisters.  Directed and produced 
 by Antonia Grace Glenn, the documentary captures the rarely told stories of 
 the earliest Japanese immigrants to the United States and their 
 American-born children.  In particular, the film focuses on the experiences 
 of Issei (or immigrant) and Nisei (or first generation born in the US) 
 women, whose voices have largely been excluded from American history.  
 \n\nFollowing the film, please join us for a panel discussion, moderated by 
 the filmmaker, in which we will draw historical parallels between the 
 Japanese American incarceration camps, and the camps set up near our 
 borders today.  Of particular focus will be how wartime incarceration 
 disproportionately affects women and children, leading to trauma that can 
 take generations to address and begin to heal.  The film and panel 
 discussion are appropriate for middle school-aged children and up.  
 Concessions available for purchase.  \n\nPanelists include:\n* Lucia Martel 
 Dow, Director of Immigration & Social Services, Canal Alliance\n* Dr. 
 Evelyn Nakano Glenn, Lead Scholar, The Ito Sisters and Professor of the 
 Graduate School, UC Berkeley\n* Dr. Peg Sandel, Head of School, Brandeis
