Nikkei Journey - Japanese Canadians In Southern Alberta

In 2003, Dr. Sato prepared a museum exhibit for the Sir Alexander Galt Museum in Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada entitled: Nikkei Tapestry: The Story of Japanese Canadians in Southern Alberta. As a follow-up, and in order to preserve this important knowledge beyond the scope of the exhibit, she published this book. Ten stories, each written from the first person perspective, tell what it was really like for pioneers, evacuees and their descendents to be Japanese Canadian.

Letter to Cody - The Longest Journey

Mitchell Moise wrote this in the hope of communicating with his 18 year old  son who he had not seen in over 15 years since being incarcerated. With the help of Dr. N. Rochelle Sato, a Sociology Instructor at Athabasca University, he  was able to bring his dream to print.  The book is an important look into the second generation effects of Canada’s Residential School Program.
