Now, 75 years later after World War II, For the Sake of the Children, explores the legacy of the Japanese American incarceration, its impact on current generations who are descendants of families who were incarcerated and the complex interplay of culture, racial prejudice, history, and intergenerational differences.
For the Sake of the Children captures the diverse voices of women who surmounted imprisonment, racial prejudice and displacement and resettlement. Mothers who gave birth to or raised children while incarcerated include: Misako Shigekawa, Kiyo Yoshida and Kitako Izumizaki. They speak of putting aside their frustration and fear to provide for their children. Daughters and sons of this generation speak of their struggle to assimilate in a postwar society while unknowingly dealing with both parental shame triggered by the incarceration experience and silent suffering. Each person tells of how he/she has searched for an outlet to express and validate their Japanese American identity. The next generation, whose grandmothers or great grandmothers were incarcerated, explains their attempts to uncover, comprehend and integrate their ancestor’s experiences into their lives.
For the Sake of the Children follows the journeys of a variety of Japanese Americans from four generations in searching for their identity as Americans with a unique Japanese American heritage. These individuals reflect a cross section of society such as artists, politicians, preservationists, journalists, activists and young students. Notable individuals include: Former U.S. Congressman and Secretary of Transportation, Norm Mineta; and actor, George Takei. Many of these stories have, until now, never been told.
All proceeds made from DVD sales and donations from film screenings will go to the Poston Community Alliance for presenting future film screenings, for preserving Poston’s historic structures, and to design and create a Poston Visitor Center.

আমার একটা অভ্যাস আছে যে আমি কোন ইন্টারনেট বিনোদন সেবা ব্যবহার করার আগে ডেটা রিপোর্টগুলো পরীক্ষা করি। সাধারণভাবে প্রকাশিত তথ্যগুলো দেখায় যে প্রচুর সক্রিয় অ্যাকাউন্ট আছে এবং গেমের সংগ্রহ অসাধারণভাবে বৈচিত্র্যময়। যখন আমি JLBDT এর ভিতরে গভীরভাবে যাচাই করি, তখন দেখি তথ্যের মানচিত্রটি সুসংগঠিতভাবে তৈরি করা হয়েছে, যা ব্যবহারকারীদের সহজে সবকিছু খুঁজে বের করতে সাহায্য করে। ইন্টারফেসটি সরল এবং পছন্দসই। আমার মতে, এই ধরনের সংগঠন বেশ পরিষ্কার।
https://www.7c777.org/ সেদিন ব্রাউজ করতে করতে কোথাও নামটা চোখে পড়েছিল, তাই কৌতূহলবশত একবার ক্লিক করে দেখে নিলাম। কনটেন্ট খুব ভালো করে পড়িনি; মূলত ইন্টারফেসটা কেমন এবং তারা বিভাগগুলো এমনভাবে সাজিয়েছে কি না যাতে সহজে খুঁজে পাওয়া যায়—সেটাই দেখছিলাম। আমার মনে হয়েছে সাইটটি বেশ “গোছানো”ভাবে তৈরি করা হয়েছে। মেনু আর কনটেন্ট ব্লকগুলো দেখলেই বোঝা যায় তারা ব্যবহারকারীদের কোন দিক দিয়ে এগিয়ে নিতে চায়, আর অতিরিক্ত লেখা দিয়ে পেজটাকে ভারী করে তোলা হয়নি। আরও লক্ষ্য করলাম, তারা আইনি লাইসেন্স-সংক্রান্ত তথ্য পেজে বেশ স্পষ্টভাবে দেখিয়েছে, তাই কেউ যাচাই করতে চাইলে সহজেই দেখতে পারে; অনেক নিচে স্ক্রল করে খুঁজতে হয় না। সব মিলিয়ে, কয়েক মিনিট ঘুরে দেখলেও চোখে ঝামেলা লাগেনি, কারণ শিরোনাম ও বিভাগগুলো আলাদা করে সাজানো, ইন্টারফেসে বেশ পরিষ্কারভাবে দেখা যায়।
Khi đang theo dõi các ý kiến trao đổi trên một diễn đàn, mình thấy nhiều người nhắc đến mb66 nên cũng vào xem thử cho biết. Mình chỉ tham khảo nhanh cách trình bày nội dung và giao diện tổng thể, chưa tìm hiểu kỹ về các phần bên trong. Ấn tượng đầu tiên là trang có bố cục khá ngăn nắp, các thông tin được sắp xếp tương đối trực quan. Sau đó mình quay lại tiếp tục theo dõi cuộc thảo luận mà mình đang quan tâm.
