Mike Abe is a Nikkei Sansei (third generation Japanese Canadian) and project manager for Landscapes of Injustice. In an interview, he described the work as “filling in the blanks
of the silence.”
Newly uncovered documents from UVic's Landscapes of Injustice team reveal the "wanton destruction" of Canada's first Japanese gardens and teahouse in Esquimalt's Gorge Park. A new
campaign seeks to rebuild the historical teahouse and raise awareness of this chapter in local history.
