Scope and Contents

From the Sub-Series:

Subseries 1.2 is primarily in English and focuses on the second and third generations of the Yasui family. The subseries is anchored by Homer Yasui’s numerous letters to family members from the 1980s to 2010s, reflecting on their history and how best to share it, as well as his research and advocacy work. Also featured are many letters from Shu Yasui (sometimes also known as Robert) and his wife, Phyllis, with Homer and Miki (Yabe) Yasui in the 1980s and 1990s; Minoru (Min) Yasui’s letters from his college days and during his incarceration. The subseries also includes minor representation by Ray Yasui (also known as Tsuyoshi, Chop, or Ches) and his wife, Mikie (Kageyama) Yasui, as well as a few letters by Kay, Michi, Roku, and Yuka Yasui, primarily from 1930s through the 1950s.
