Some Issues in the Educational Gerontology of Japanese-American Elders

Mizokawa, Donald T.

Educational Gerontology, 2, 2, 123-129, Apr 77

Elders in the Japanese-American community are still largely Isseis, first-generation immigrants from Japan. Their cultural history, social conditions, language, values, and conflicts with younger Japanese-American groups are discussed, with the intention of increasing awareness of this minority within a minority.
