ddr-csujad-4-13 — Letter from Usami Terada to Mr. Thomas, September 30, 1942

The Densho Digital Repository exists today because of federal funding that is now at risk. The reality is that less than 1% of people who use Densho’s resources support us financially. Make a gift to Densho to support free, open access resources that keep Japanese American history alive!
