About this listen
Guest: Susan Miyagi McCormac, Founder and Editor-in-Chief, Japan Culture NYC
As Gaby tries to define his multicultural identity, he meets Susan Miyagi McCormac, who grew up in North Carolina with an Okinawan mother and a U.S. military father. When Susan discovered that the 1945 Battle of Okinawa (in which the U.S. invaded Okinawa) began on her mother’s birthday, she felt an urgency to learn about her mother’s heritage. Susan is now a Japanese American community leader in New York City and runs the website Japan Culture NYC, a go-to resource for Japanese culture, events, and businesses.
Produced by Gabriel Bhasin
