From October 1 to December 22, 2023, UVic Libraries and the UVic Centre for Asia-Pacific Initiatives are hosting the Landscapes of Injustice’s Broken Promises exhibit on the main floor of the Mearns Centre for Learning – McPherson Library.

A collaboration with the Nikkei National Museum and Cultural Centre and the Royal BC Museum, the exhibit recounts stories of Japanese Canadian dispossession and internment in the 1940s, and the lasting impacts of the policies aimed at all people of Japanese descent living in coastal BC.
