Nowadays, it's not a country where the poor come to - maybe, but
Long ago, Japanese people abandoned their homeland and came to work in Japan, Kagoshima, Hiroshima, Kyushu, and many others
Even now, they have a Kenjinkai picnic, but times change, young kids are not interested.

Research shows that Japanese immigration to the United States, abandoning their homeland, began in the Meiji Era (1868-1912). The first Japanese immigrants were 22 samurai and farmers from the Aizu clan who lost the Boshin War in 1877 and settled in California, led by an arms dealer named Henry ・ Schnell.1 However, the Wakamatsu Colony collapsed after two years, and some of the immigrants returned to Japan, while some scattered to other areas.
Thereafter, in 1865, the colony was reestablished in California. Later, when the Meiji government officially authorized overseas travel in 1884,
the number of Japanese immigrants increased.3 Many Japanese worked as laborers in agriculture and industry, but faced racial discrimination and legal restrictions. In 1913, the Japanese immigrated to California, where they were forced to work in the agricultural industry. For example, in 1913, California enacted the Alien Land Law, which prohibited non-naturalized foreigners ( including Japanese at the time ) from owning land.4 In 1924, the Immigration Law was amended, effectively banning all immigration from Japan.5

During World War II, the U.S. and Japan began to cooperate with each other. During World War II, Japan and the United States became enemies, and tragedy struck when approximately 120,000 Japanese Americans living on the West Coast were sent to concentration camps. After the war, Nikkei struggled to regain their social status and economic losses; in 1952, the Immigration and Nationality Act was enacted, allowing Issei to become citizens; in 1965, the Immigration Act was again amended to allow immigration from Japan and other Asian countries.

Today, there are approximately 1.2 million Japanese Americans living in the United States and working in diverse fields. They continue to contribute to American society, never forgetting their roots.

Daniel Inoue, who contributed so much to the United States that his name became the name of an airport in Hawaii, was probably the most active person of Japanese descent.

The Potato King and Yobareta Japanese is a man named Kinji Ushijima ( Ushijima Kinji ). He came to the U.S. during the Meiji era (1868-1912) and built a large and successful potato plantation. He also did much for Japanese immigrants and was awarded the Order of the Rising Sun, Gold Rays with Rosette.1

Kinji Ushijima was born in 1864 in Kurume, Fukuoka Prefecture. After studying Chinese studies and commerce in Tokyo, he moved to the United States in 1888. After working in San Francisco while learning English, he rented a piece of wasteland in California and began growing potatoes and onions.
In 1926, on his way back to Japan, Ushijima died of a brain hemorrhage in Los Angeles.1 After his death, he was posthumously awarded the Order of the Rising Sun, Gold Rays with Rosette for his achievements.1 He is remembered as the "Potato King" in America, but never forgot his Japanese heart .

I am looking for a place where my grandfather, grandmother, and father used to live.

It was a long time ago, around 1930, I was running a flower shop in Little Tokyo, Los Angeles. Three years later, for some reason or other, they returned to Japan, but when the three of them were still alive, ( I found information and books of the flower shop in my childhood ) and the address.
It was a pre-war address, "332 E. first street, Los Angeles Calif.
However, since it is an old address, I can only find "maybe here ?". Because when I did a GOOGLE search, it was in front of the Sakura Hotel.
The address of the flower shop was "under Ohayo Hotel" from there.
I am having a hard time finding out where the Ohayo Hotel was located and if it was possibly the predecessor of the Sakura Hotel.
I am planning to visit Los Angeles in the near future to see my grandmother's roots, which were Japanese-American. ( I'm not sure if it's inside Skid Row, but )

Perhaps there is a 90+ year old person who has lived in Little Tokyo since childhood, and if memory serves, there may be a chance.
If anyone has any information, please let us know.
By the way, the name of the flower shop my grandfather owned at that time was Tei ( MIKADO )

Difference between citizenship and permanent residence

Question
#1
  • Lilly

  • 2024/11/16 08:05

I would like to know everyone's thoughts or experiences. I am currently pregnant with my second child and considering having the baby in Japan for various reasons. Our first child was born in the U.S., so we are dual internationals. We are both Permanent Residents and I have a current renewal receipt that allows me to come and go from Japan to the US until 2027.

I know that if I give birth in Japan, my child will be a Permanent Resident when we come back together, but has anyone raised a child in the US as a Permanent Resident ?

Have there been any inconveniences ? I have not had any inconveniences so far. I have not experienced any inconvenience with permanent residency so far, so I don't know of any disadvantages that I am familiar with. I would like to know before deciding that I will give birth in Japan.


Please help me !

Palos Verdes I want to live in Palos Verdes.

I am planning to move to Los Angeles next year for work.
My family of five, my wife and three children, would like to live in Rancho Palos Verdes, but I saw on the news that heavy rains have caused landslides, so much so that a state of emergency has been declared.
Has the area near Palos Verdes become an area to avoid? I would appreciate it if you could let me know the current situation.
Thanks in advance.

I ~ shudder to think that the nightmare will resume. In short, this country is for white people by white people. I'm going back to Japan before I get killed too soon. I expect nothing more from America.
