Japanese War Brides: Bridges in the Post-War Alliance

On December 3, 2020, Sasakawa USA hosted Ms. Kathryn Tolbert, an editor at the Washington Post, and Col. (Ret.) Jyuji Hewitt for a virtual seminar as part of our Policy Briefing Series. Ms. Tolbert used materials from her Japanese War Brides oral history project to discuss the role of Japanese women who married American GIs following World War II as bridges in Japan's transition from wartime enemy to ally. Col. (Ret.) Jyuji Hewitt, whose family's story has been preserved through the Japanese War Brides project, offered a personal perspective on the impact of the war brides on U.S.-Japan relations.
