Letters to Home: Art and Writing by LGBTQ+ Nikkei and Allies asks what it means to welcome others and to be welcomed home. Bringing together art, poetry, and story-telling from nearly 50 contributors across the US and Japan, this wide-ranging volume offers a nuanced exploration of the trials and triumphs of finding community, and the process of co-constructing a sense of belonging for all queer Nikkei. This project was the vision of Okaeri, a Los Angeles-based organization dedicated to creating visibility, compassionate spaces, and transformation for LGBTQ+ Nikkei and their families.
