Ray was first involved with JACL in the late 80's and early 90's encouraged by community leader Al Sugiyama and others, including Janice Deguchi and Joy Misako St. Germain, who encouraged Ray to run for the office of Seattle JACL President. Ray reflected on organized efforts at time, such as Initiative 200 to end affirmative action, and opposition against the gay and lesbian community. JACL was beginning to find new paths as a civil rights organization, such as collaborating and supporting the American Jewish Committee and the LGBTQIA community. The JACL membership was the powerful force then as it is today to rally the community on issues that impact everyone. JACL started to move beyond the focus on redress to work with other racial and ethnic communities and took the work to a new level, with younger leaders taking on leadership roles. As he and his family are Seattle natives, he expressed hope and gratitude for the recent work of JACL to support Black Lives Matter and on immigration issues. His work on the Pike Place Market Council and the progress seen in the area of minority and women owned businesses demonstrates how much impact volunteer work can have to make positive change. His parents' experiences. being incarcerated during WWII and his upbringing had a tremendous influence on his not taking for granted the importance of continuing the work of civil rights and social justice.

Masajiro Furuya was born in Yamanishi Prefecture, Japan, in 1862 and made his fortune in Washington State as a banker, merchant, and labor contractor. Furuya, a tailor by trade, immigrated to Seattle in 1890 and eventually opened his own shop. Several years later, he began operating a grocery store while he continued tailoring on the side. With the rise in Japanese immigration in the 1890s and early 1900s, Furuya's business grew rapidly. Soon, his mercantile business, complete with wholesale and retail import and export divisions, occupied a six-story building in downtown Seattle. He later opened branches elsewhere in the Pacific Northwest, Japan, and Vancouver, British Columbia.Furuya, along with companies such as Tobo, also contracted Japanese laborers to work on the Northern Pacific and Great Northern Railroads primarily as section hands and engine watchmen. The Issei made anywhere from $.85 to $1.50 per day, less than their Caucasian counterparts. In 1907, Furuya organized the Japanese Commercial Bank, then later purchased the Oriental American Bank in 1914 and the Seattle Specie Bank in 1923. He consolidated all three banks into the Pacific Commercial Bank. Unfortunately, with the Great Depression, Furuya went bankrupt on October 23, 1931. He moved to Los Angeles and eventually returned permanently to Yokohama, Japan.

Ray was first involved with JACL in the late 80's and early 90's encouraged by community leader Al Sugiyama and others, including Janice Deguchi and Joy Misako St. Germain, who encouraged Ray to run for the office of Seattle JACL President. Ray reflected on organized efforts at time, such as Initiative 200 to end affirmative action, and opposition against the gay and lesbian community. JACL was beginning to find new paths as a civil rights organization, such as collaborating and supporting the American Jewish Committee and the LGBTQIA community. The JACL membership was the powerful force then as it is today to rally the community on issues that impact everyone. JACL started to move beyond the focus on redress to work with other racial and ethnic communities and took the work to a new level, with younger leaders taking on leadership roles. As he and his family are Seattle natives, he expressed hope and gratitude for the recent work of JACL to support Black Lives Matter and on immigration issues. His work on the Pike Place Market Council and the progress seen in the area of minority and women owned businesses demonstrates how much impact volunteer work can have to make positive change. His parents' experiences. being incarcerated during WWII and his upbringing had a tremendous influence on his not taking for granted the importance of continuing the work of civil rights and social justice. He believes that the success of JACL is due to the ongoing commitment of the membership and leadership.","extent":"0:36:39","links_children":"ddr-sjacl-2-41","creators":[{"role":"narrator","id":1039,"namepart":"Ray Ishii"},{"role":"interviewer","namepart":"Ana Tanaka"},{"role":"interviewer","namepart":"Joy Misako St. Germain"}],"format":"vh","language":["eng"],"contributor":"Seattle JACL","rights":"cc","genre":"interview","creation":"21-Apr-22","status":"completed","search_hidden":"Ray Ishii narrator \nAna Tanaka interviewer \nJoy Misako St. Germain interviewer","download_large":"ddr-sjacl-2-41-1-mezzanine-f39732270b-a.jpg"},{"id":"ddr-densho-1000-138","model":"entity","index":"24 624/{'value': 627, 'relation': 'eq'}","links":{"html":"https://ddr.densho.org/ddr-densho-1000-138/","json":"https://ddr.densho.org/api/0.2/ddr-densho-1000-138/","img":"https://ddr.densho.org/media/ddr-densho-1000/denshovh-ytosh-01-a.jpg","thumb":"http://ddrmedia.local/media/ddr-densho-1000/denshovh-ytosh-01-a.jpg"},"title":"Tosh Yasutake Interview","description":"Nisei male.
