AND, AT ANY RATE, THIS WAS JUST A FEW DAYS BEFORE I IMPULSIVELY BECAUSE WHEN I SAW GEORGE TAKEI, AS BEING PART OF THE JAPANESE STARTED TALKING ABOUT HIS WAR II AND HOW AT LEAST HE WAS TO MY FRIEND THAT I WAS WATCHING I HAD A CHILDHOOD IN CAMP AND --

ALTHOUGH, YOU KNOW, I WAS WITH CAMP IN MINIDOKA, IDAHO, IN THE THE LOCATIONS OF CAMPS. I SUDDENLY DECIDED THAT I HAD OKLAHOMA AND I CALLED A FEW ONE OF THEM WHO SENT ME A FLIER, IT I SAW MANY FAMILIAR NAMES, IN FACT TWO YOUNG PEOPLE, ONE OF COMPANY IN 1985 AND HER, THEN, PART OF THE ORGANIZERS OF THIS DECIDED TO GO.

BUT I THINK IT LINKS WAY, WAY >> WHAT WAS IT LIKE FOR AND YOUR DETENTION CENTER IN IDAHO OR >> PEARL HARBOR DAY IS MY FOURTH PICKED UP AND MOVED, MY IN APRIL OF 1942. AND MOVED TO A AND AT THAT TIME TEMPORARY MEANT 1000 OR MORE PEOPLE. SO, WE WERE AT THE WASHINGTON LIVED IN HORSE STALLS OR THERE WERE COTS AS FAR AS YOU BARRACKS WHERE THE WOOD WAS SO IN THE SPRING RAINS AND WHEN THE

WOULD HAVE SHRUNK SO THAT THERE KINDS OF CREEPY CRAWLIES WOULD IN CALIFORNIA, FOR INSTANCE, ANITA RACETRACK. IN PORTLAND OREGON, THEY WERE AT SO, THAT WAS MY FIRST BUT AS TO WHAT I TRULY REMEMBER NOW TO DIFFERENTIATE BECAUSE I HISTORIES. I HAVE HAD SO MANY CONVERSATIONS THINK BASICALLY MY MEMORIES ARE I DO REMEMBER CRYING IN THE I REMEMBER SHOUTING AND FIGHTS A LOT OF MISERY.

I REMEMBER THE WEATHER, 10 BELOW MADE ME A MASK OUT OF AN ARMY FOR EYES AND NOSTRILS AND A SLIT AND 105-DEGREES IN THE SUMMER. >> WHAT DO YOU THINK THE LASTING LIKE YOU HAVING THESE >> WELL, I HAVE OFTEN SAID AND EXPERIENCE, HAVE AGREED, THAT COURSE, THAT TERM WASN'T EVEN BUT, I THINK THE REASONS FOR SO REALLY A BURGEONING KIND OF INTEREST IN THIS EXPERIENCE IS HAVE PERPETRATED FROM ONE

WHY DO YOU SEE PARALLELS BETWEEN >> WELL, I THINK, NO. 1 ARE CHILDREN. MANY OF THEM HAVE NO SAY IN THEM. SECONDLY, THEY ARE HUMAN BEINGS. THIRDLY, THEY ARE ASYLUM AND, SO, OUR GROUP, THOSE WHO OUR DEMONSTRATION AT FORT SILL

IS BEING REPEATED AND THERE IS A AMERICAN COMMUNITY HAS HAD ALL NEVER AGAIN. WELL NEVER AGAIN IS NOW. >> YOU MENTIONED FORT SILL. IT HAS BEEN USED AS A RELOCATION BOARDING SCHOOL FOR NATIVE FAMILIES, AN INTERNMENT CAMP FOR WAR II. IT WAS USED IN 2014 TO HOUSE THERE ARE PLANS TO USE IT AGAIN WHY IS USING IT FOR MIGRANT HAPPENED TO YOU AND OTHER II? >> I THINK A LOT OF THAT COMES NOT? IT COMES FROM WHOEVER THE OTHER DESIGNATED. IN 1942 WE WERE THE OTHER. ALTHOUGH, WE WERE AMERICAN

HAVE BECOME AMERICAN CITIZENS IF EXCLUSION LAWS, NEVERTHELESS WHO GAVE ME AN ORAL HISTORY SAYS AMERICAN HEART. EVEN THOUGH HE ATE WITH CHOP EVEN THOUGH HE WENT TO JAPANESE PERFECT ENGLISH. I DON'T THINK I HAVE TO PRESS SEE THE SIMILARITIES IN WHAT IS AMERICA IS SUPPOSED TO BE A I MEAN, EUROPEAN IMMIGRANTS SAW AMERICA AS THE STATUE OF ASIANS CAME THROUGH THE PACIFIC BEFORE THEY WERE ALLOWED IN THE THAT PEOPLE OF MY PARENTS'

GENERATION REALLY BELIEVED IN MY MOTHER. >> ULTIMATELY YOU AND OTHERS SILL PROTEST BUT THERE WAS AN YELLING AT YOU ALL THAT YOU ARE OUTSIDE THE GATE AT FORT SILL. HE YELLED, YOU NEED TO MOVE UNDERSTAND? IT IS ENGLISH, GET OUT. >> THAT IS RIGHT >> WE WERE STUNNED. PRIOR TO THAT WHEN HE FIRST DEMONSTRATION WAS VERY WELL NONVIOLENT AND WE HAD ACTUALLY ASKED FOR COMMEMORATION AT FORT SILL AND BEFORE, THE EVENING I ARRIVED ON RECEIVED SAYING THAT PERMISSION THAT WAS AT THAT TIME IN THE

STAYING AT THAT WE DECIDED ON THERE WERE SIX OF US WHO WERE VARIOUS CAMPS WHO WERE ASKED IF ARRESTED. SO, WHAT WE HAD PLANNED WAS ELDERS, BUT WHEN I FIRST GOT WAS TALKING ABOUT ELDERS, WHO IS AND THEY POINTED AT ME AND THEN THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO FORT SILL CROWD TO GIVE SUPPORT. AND THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN I FIND DEMONSTRATION AT FORT SILL EACH ONE OF US WE DECIDED WOULD

PRIMARILY ON BEING A CHILD IN A AND THAT IS WHEN, RIGHT AFTER I FOURTH BIRTHDAY IS PEARL HARBOR PEARL HARBOR IN HONOLULU AND IN AT MY DOOR AND THEY REMOVED MY PARTY. >> NOW THAT YOU ARE CALLED UPON THERE ARE MORE PROTESTS PLANNED ARE YOU GOING TO TAKE PART? >> I PLAN TO TAKE PART WHENEVER A DEMONSTRATION IS PLANNED FOR IN WASHINGTON D.C. WILL BE PRESENT, BECAUSE WE ENTHUSIASM AND IT IS NOT JUST

THIS IS LINKED INTO A BIG CAUSE AND THEY HAVE BEEN SEPARATED. AT LEAST MOST OF US WERE WITH >> YOU SPENT MOST OF YOUR LIFE COLLECTING ORAL HISTORIES, SORT WHAT PROMPTED YOU? WHY NOW STEP FORWARD? WHAT PROMPTED YOU TO DO THAT? >> IT MUST HAVE BEEN THE RIGHT IT WAS VERY IMPULSIVE. IT WAS SEEING GEORGE TAKEI TALK AND I ALSO THINK IT LEADS TO KNOW, AS A CHILD GROWING UP IN MORE EUROPEANIZED AND MY MOTHER

JAPANESE PEOPLE I WAS AROUND BUT PART OF MY NEIGHBORHOOD WAS I KNEW MANY PEOPLE, REFUGEES MY PIANO TEACHER WAS A FORMER OPERA AND I THINK BEFORE I KNEW AMERICAN EXPERIENCE, I NEVER SAW A MAGAZINE OR IF I SAW SOMEBODY SERVANT ROLE OR SOME KIND OF A SO I THINK ANNE FRANK WAS MY THE BLACK CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT, ROSA PARKS AND, YOU KNOW, THE I JUST THINK, AND I THINK I SAID

LAWTON, OKLAHOMA, THAT I GUESS BECAUSE IT FELT VERY, VERY RIGHT THERE WAS A RISK OF BEING THAT WAS SUCH A GREAT RISK PEOPLE HAVE TAKEN SO I WAS SHOULDERS. >> NIKKI NOJIMA LOUIS, THANK YOU >> THANK YOU. >> I FEEL LIKE IT IS IMPORTANT THEMSELVES REPRESENTED IN THE THEY IDENTIFY THAT WHAT THEY EXPRESS THEMSELVES IS JUST AS VALID AS ANY OTHER EXPRESSION >> NEW MEXICO IS IN AN BOTH RECREATIONAL AND MEDICAL MEDICAL CANNABIS HAS BEEN LEGAL

THE PROGRAM LANGUISHED UNDER LUJAN GRISHAM WAS HEALTH SHE IS, OF COURSE, GOVERNOR NOW. SHE HAS OPENED UP LEGALIZING LOOKING AT OTHER STATES' PROGRAMS MIGHT COME TOGETHER IS COLORADO HAS BOTH MEDICAL AND MEDICAL PATIENTS WORRY THE THE BOOMING RECREATIONAL SHOULD WE BE LOOKING AT THAT PROBLEM FOR NEW MEXICO THAT IS WE SHOULD FIGURE OUT HOW TO IS THAT THE APPROPRIATE PLACE WE >> I AGREE WITH YOU, BUT I THINK DIFFERENT -- YOU HAVE ALL THESE AT IT TO SERVE A NUMBER OF ONE IS MEDICAL AND OTHER IS JUST IF IT PLAYS OUT AS OFTENTIMES IT

WOULD PROJECT WE KNOW THE PEOPLE FINANCIAL PERSPECTIVE, ALREADY ACTUALLY, AND ATTORNEYS TO WELL AS OPPOSED TO THE USERS AND MEDICINAL ASPECTS. SO, I THINK THAT YOU REALLY NEED AT THE TABLE, ALL OF IT BE PART OF THE PROCESS. BUT, REALLY WE NEED TO, YOU MEETING? WHO ARE WE SERVING? AND WHOSE BEST INTERESTS ARE WE >> MARY, THE GROUP, THE WORKING LEGALIZATION IS GOING THROUGH A THE STATE. THEY ARE STARTING NEXT MONTH IN BUT, PAT DAVIS, CITY COUNCILOR, AS SAYING, WE DON'T HAVE MUCH WHAT HE IS TALKING ABOUT IS

DO YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN? I CAN'T QUITE SEE THIS ALL SESSION. >> THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED IN ENOUGH TIME TO THINK ABOUT IT AND WE DO NEED TO LOOK AT -- RECREATIONAL IS LEGAL AND WE PROBLEMS ARE AND IN COLORADO, THEY HAVE HAD IS THEY ARE PRIVATE HOMES. AND, SO, THAT IS WHERE YOUR CETERA. AND THAT IS WHAT YOU HAVE TO >> ABSOLUTELY. JEFFREY, HOW DO YOU SEPARATE THE NEEDS ARE MET ON THE MEDICAL WE HAVE INFORMATION NOW, OF THE BOTH RECREATIONAL AND MEDICAL, BOARD, THE MEDICAL SITUATION HAS THOSE STATES AND ESPECIALLY SPIKES, LOSS OF AVAILABLE

CAN WE PULL THIS OFF IN THE TIME ARE TREATED FAIRLY, RECREATIONAL >> THERE IS A REAL INTERESTING BUSINESS AND HEALTH APPLICATION. I FIND WHAT IS INTERESTING IS, NURSE PRACTITIONER IS DESIGNATED PARTICULAR DRUG. FURTHER SCIENCE HASN'T CAUGHT UP HEALTH APPLICATIONS THAT THE WE KNOW IT CAN ALLEVIATE AND SOME OF THAT. THERE IS OPIOID DISORDER, THERE OTHER HEALTH PROTOCOLS WHERE CAN HELP THOSE PARTICULAR SO, I FIND THAT KIND OF AND THE OTHER PART WE DON'T ON RESERVATIONS OR RURAL NEW

HEALTH -- KIND OF LIKE THE BROAD IF YOU'RE IN EUNICE, NEW MEXICO HAVE EQUAL ACCESS TO THIS PRODUCT THAT WILL ALLEVIATE A LOT OF MOVING PARTS. >> CAN WE JUST KIND OF POOL SOME >> THOSE APPLICATIONS AND TO INVOKE IN THOSE >> LET ME ADD SOMETHING. I MENTIONED MEDICAL FOLKS ARE THERE IS CHANGES PROPOSED. AND THEY ARE PROPOSING ADDING MEDICAL MARIJUANA PROGRAM BUT PLANTS FOR GROWERS FROM 450 TO ALSO BRING THAT DOWN TO 1750. I SEE WHAT IS WORKING HERE. THEY KNOW THEY HAVE A PROBLEM MEDICAL IF THEY ARE RUNNING OUT IS THIS THE ANSWER, THOUGH, ARE THEY ON TRACK? >> I WONDER IF THEY ARE GOING

WAY. WHEN I GO TO THE DOCTOR AND HE PRESCRIBES A NEW DRUG. I DON'T HAVE TO QUALIFY TO GET IT SEEMS TO ME IF WE ACCEPTED CERTAIN AILMENTS, THAT A DOCTOR AND PATIENTS SHOULD GET A KNOW WHY THE STATE HAS TO I WONDER IF YOU WOULD GET RID OF MEDICAL SHORTAGES, ET CETERA, IF PRESCRIPTION THAT THE DOCTOR >> THAT IS A VERY GOOD POINT. >> IF YOU THINK ABOUT THE STATE LEGAL, AT LEAST MEDICALLY, ON A MARKETS, PERHAPS, YOU COULD MAKE MARIJUANA EVEN IF YOU COULDN'T VERSUS CALIFORNIA. I AGREE WITH ALL THE PANELISTS PATIENTS WHO NEED IT FOR A ALL KNOW SOMEONE WHO BASICALLY

THINK THIS IS A BAD THING LIFE OR THEY WOULDN'T HAVE DONE BUT THEY COME UP WITH SOME CRITERIA AND AS SOON AS IT IS A DIFFERENT WAY. BUT THAT PERSON ISN'T SOMEONE CONCENTRATION, CERTAIN TYPE OF ARE GOING TO MAKE THE DIFFERENCE LIVES. >> THAT'S RIGHT. >> WE ALL HAVE HEARD ABOUT THE CANDIDATES. IF WE HAVE FREE-FOR-ALL FOLKS THE DOCTORS WHO ISSUE IT, WE INTEGRITY OF THE DRUG. >> THE MANUFACTURE AND DOCTORS SORT IT OUT THEMSELVES. >> VERY GOOD POINT. >> QUANTITY VERSUS QUALITY IS >> ARE YOU SENSING THAT WE ARE MEDICAL SIDE AS WE GO INTO THIS CONVERSATION? THERE IS A CONVERSATION >> I HOPE SO. JUST IN PREPARING FOR TODAY,

GO TOWARDS LEGALIZING, THEN THEN I DON'T NEED MY MEDICAL I'LL GET RID OF THAT BUT THEN THEN IT WEAKENS WHAT THEY NEED. I CERTAINLY HOPE THAT IS WHAT BUT, FOR THE PAST EIGHT YEARS IT WAS LIKE DON'T ASK, DON'T THAT IS WHAT WAS GOING ON BUT HAS A DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE HEALTH BACKGROUND SO SHE REALLY FOREFRONT. AND BECAUSE OF THAT, I DO THINK MEDICAL ASPECT. >> I THINK THAT IS AN THAT IS HER GOING TO BE HER BACK ON HER DESK. >> EXACTLY. I AGREE. >> I WOULD BE INCLINED TO TAKE I THINK THAT IS CRITICAL.

TO RUSH SOMETHING LIKE THIS THAT COMMUNITY IT IS BEST TO TAKE IT MANNER RATHER THAN TO RUSH IT. >> ABSOLUTELY. JEFFREY, INTERESTINGLY THE INTERESTING FACES, JOHN BOEHNER, IN THE MARIJUANA BUSINESS. HE HAS AN INTEREST IN A FEW REPUBLICANS, EVEN LOCALLY SHERIFF DARREN WHITE WHO HAS A MARIJUANA BUSINESS NOW. WHAT IS THE DEAL INSIDE THE TO LEGALIZATION? >> OBVIOUSLY I AM A REPUBLICAN. I CAN'T SPEAK TO THAT NECESSARY CAPACITY, IF I AM ALREADY A EXAMPLE, I AM GOING TO WANT THAT WHATEVER, SO I CAN MAXIMIZE MY SO I AM NOT SURE IF THAT ANSWERS A FAIR QUESTION TO ASK.

IF I AM A PRODUCER I WANT THE FOUR OR 5,000. ONCE AGAIN, YOU ALSO HAVE THAT MONOPOLY, AND THEN ONCE AGAIN, TO GET INTO GROWING CANNABIS, PROFIT?

THERE HAS BEEN A LOT OF BACK AND WHAT DOES THAT REALLY MEAN? IT IS NOT AN EASY PROCESS, I

SOME OF THE THINGS THAT WE'RE THERE IS A LOT OF INFORMATIONAL THERE IS A COMPUTER AND THE CONTENTS AND MAPS AND SO MUCH OF EDUCATION. SO, HOW DO YOU COMBINE THE THAT ARE TRADITIONAL AND HOW DO FEELS SEAMLESS FOR THE KIDS REALLY INTEGRATED. SO IT HAS BEEN A DANCE, I THINK, FOR THIS PRODUCTION, BUT, WHAT A AND I KNOW THAT WE RECENTLY FAIRBANKS AND EVERYBODY FROM CAME TO FAIRBANKS AND SOME WGBH FOR PUBLIC BROADCASTING AND WE KIDS AND WE HAD A GROUP AND IT FELT SO SETTLED THAT OF DOING SOMETHING AND VERY

HE WAS REGISTERED. TWO DAYS LATER, SORRY, GUESS OUR LAWS, BECAUSE NEW MEXICO HAS 16. SO IT IS 13 TO 16 IF YOU HAVE THE ISSUE, OKAY. AGE OF CONSENT LAW, YOU KNOW, A A LOT OF STATES HAVE 17 AND SO THAT IS WHAT I THINK THAT THE MEXICO'S LAW IS IF YOU'RE IN A THIS FORCIBLY, ET CETERA, BUT BECAUSE THE LAW IS IF YOU ARE HEARING THAT THESE WOMEN, THESE SO, VERY INTERESTING AT THE TIME

HE HAD LIKE THIS MACHINE PROCESS INVENTORY THESE CHILDREN AND OTHER WAY JUST TO BE AROUND THAT THAT IS THE MOST FIENDISH THING COURSE OUR LAWS HAVEN'T CAUGHT JUST THE VERY MACHINE THAT HE YEARS, AND INFLUENCE AND THERE IS A

CONDITION THAT HAS A KIND OF A OBVIOUSLY WE'RE NOT PART OF BUT IT SAYS SOMETHING ABOUT WHAT THAT ABSOLUTE POWER. PEOPLE WILL ALMOST FORGET. THE TRAVESTY OF JUSTICE, THIS IT DOESN'T EXIST IN OUR COUNTRY. >> BACK TO THE AG HERE. HE IS FULLY ON THE HOOK HERE. THERE IS NO WAY HE CAN DO A SITUATION.
