“Paper Chase,” a documentary film that delves into the history of Japanese-American news media, will be screened on Sunday, Aug. 13, at the Nisei Veterans Memorial Center. Free showings are scheduled for 11 a.m. and at 2 p.m. at the center located at 665 Kahului Beach Road.
The Maui Filipino Chamber of Commerce honored five outstanding Filipino leaders in the community with the prestigious Gintong Pamana Leadership Award and congratulated 19 students who are receiving scholarships from the Chamber’s foundation.
The exhibit offers a first-person glimpse of precious artifacts from World War II, gifted to the Center over the past several months. Items include everything from a Japanese canteen from the 1942 battle of Guadalcanal, to a Japanese aircraft mechanic’s toolbox from 1941, to medals from the personal collection of Nisei Veteran Toshio Kubota (gifted to NVMC by his daughter, Valerie Matsunaga).
