- Abstract:
- ABSTRACT: Mitsu Yashima (1908–1988) was a political dissident and artist in two countries: In prewar Japan, she became a proletarian rights activist; during World War II, she continued to oppose Japanese militarism by working for the U.S. government, and in her later years, she opposed U.S. militarism during the Vietnam War. In San Francisco, she became an admired cultural worker in the Asian American movement. Yashima's concern for human rights and peace fueled her art, political engagement, and community building.
