Students at a new field school learn by visiting the sites where Japanese Canadians were held in internment camps during the Second World War.
An international workshop on visual storytelling held at a former Nazi concentration camp for women brought Holocaust scholars, graduate students and visual artists from Canada,
France, Greece, Germany and Israel together to examine how graphic novels can be used for Holocaust education.
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.
