From Little Tokyo to Crenshaw (Preview)

Preview: Season 5 Episode 5 | 30sVideo has Closed Captions

After internment, Japanese Americans made L.A.'s Crenshaw neighborhood their home.

Japanese Americans returning from World War II incarceration camps rebuilt their community in L.A.’s Crenshaw area. We walk through Little Tokyo, explore the archives at the Japanese American National Museum, share a meal at historic Tak’s Cafe, shoot hoops at Dorsey High and consider how the neighborhood’s diverse history intersects with community-building efforts today.
