About
Warrior Spirit, or Mononofu in Japanese, dives deep into the military history of Japanese Canadians fighting for Canada. It unpacks the complexities, struggles, honour, and perseverance of Nikkei (persons of Japanese ancestry) in the First World War, Second World War, and Korean War.
The enduring resilience, strength, courage, and honour of these dedicated Japanese Canadians are represented in this digital exhibition.
