Worried Over This Boat”
I Look Nature
This article brings together family history and personal memory with analysis of several Japanese Canadian rock gardens. The article argues that Japanese Canadians have related themselves to the environments of the World War II incarceration camps and the places in which they were forcibly resettled afterward through the collection and arrangement of rocks for both formal memorials and as vernacular expressive forms. The article reads the rock ga…

This article provides a history of the Japanese Camp and Mill Workers Union (JCMWU), from its founding in 1920 until its dissolution during the World War II mass incarceration of Japanese Canadians. The JCMWU was, according to union organizer Ryuichi Yoshida, a "general union of all Japanese workers" that "could not be an ordinary labour union." Organized along the lines of race rather than by trade or industry, the union fought struggles against…

The book builds on and significantly extends the focus of Driscoll’s previous work on Japanese imperialism. These include his first book, Absolute Erotic, Absolute Grotesque: The Living, Dead, a…
