70 years ago, 76 Japanese Canadian students who were attending the University of British Columbia were forcibly removed and exiled from the B.C. coast. They were unable to complete their degrees or to graduate at convocation with their classmates.
In 'A Degree of Justice', 6 of these students recall growing up in Vancouver, attending UBC, the many hardships caused by their removal from the coast in 1942, and their thoughts on finally being recognized.
