Description

Explore the history of ethnic community mother-tongue schools through this detailed study by Routledge. While the United States is known as a nation of immigrants, many are unaware of the specific schools that helped preserve immigrant languages and cultures. This book provides a historical record of the schools established by Americans of Japanese ancestry. Focusing on the efforts of the Japanese community in California, the text examines how linguistic and cultural heritage was maintained. The narrative covers the period from the early 20th century through World War II, while also surveying conditions during the war and the postwar era leading up to the present day. This work offers a deep look at the educational methods used to keep heritage alive across different generations.
