Listen Later

In this episode of Remarkable People, join host Guy Kawasaki as he engages in a thought-provoking conversation with Mitchell Maki, the president and CEO of the Go For Broke National Education Center. Mitchell shares the remarkable story of the Japanese-American veterans of World War II, who fought with incredible courage and patriotism for a country that had unjustly incarcerated their families. Discover how these heroes overcame race prejudice, wartime hysteria, and a failure of political leadership to become the most highly decorated unit of their size in American military history. Maki's insights shed light on this crucial chapter of American history and its enduring lessons for upholding democracy and civil rights, even in times of crisis.
