Japanese Culture: Links to More Information

In Dandelion Through the Crack we learn so much of Japanese culture at the time of the internment. But time does not stand still and there is so much more to learn, about the people, the culture, and the aftermath of the Internment. We provide links here as a service to readers interested in learning more about the Japanese, their culture, and what has happened to Poston.
