In this session, Ana Tanaka led a panel of Kip Tokuda's friends (Janice Deguchi, Akemi Matsumoto, Rep. Sharon Tomiko Santos, Barbara Lui, and Bill Tashima) in a remembrance of Tokuda. Tokuda was an iconic leader in the Japanese American community who as a Washington State Legislator, Seattle JACL President, and local organizer advocated and established programs and groups for youth leadership, civil liberties protection, Japanese American Legacy preservation, and much more. Tokuda was a prime force behind the formation of the Asian American Pacific Islander Community Leadership Foundation, the Japanese Cultural and Community Center of Washington, and the Kip Tokuda Civil Liberty Public Education Program.
