 VicFI5M3FhSUZ6dz09   Hybrid Meeting - Racism by Aki Horii Aki Horii was b
 orn in 1931 in Vancouver.  “As a child aged 10\, I thought I was a Cana
 dian. I was born in Vancouver\, and we were being patriotic. But suddenly 
 the war breaks out with Japan\, and we’re different.” Growing up in Ja
 pantown\, Horii had never experienced racism. “I never heard the racist 
 term Jap against us\, because we grew up with Niseis (second-generation Ja
 panese born in Canada)\,” he said.  But this changed when Japan bombed 
 Pearl Harbour on Dec. 7\, 1941\, and “the next day we all had to quit sc
 hool.” Horii’s family ended up in a “self-supporting camp” across 
 the Fraser River from Lillooet. Racist attitudes softened after a couple 
 of years\, and Horii was able to attend high school in Lillooet. He attend
 ed UBC for a year\, being the older son\, he had to drop out to work to he
 lp the family. He returned to UBC in the 1960's and earned his MD degree\,
  he had practised for 48 years as a family physician in Vancouver.
