About the Event
"An Introduction to 20th Century Immigrants to the U.S." will be presented online by Linda Harms Okazaki on Saturday, Feb. 24, from 1 to 3 p.m. This very basic class will introduce you to a complex subject: learning about laws and events that impacted 20th-century immigration to the U.S. from the Pacific and the Atlantic through Canada and Mexico. Basic records will be reviewed. The online presentation is suitable for beginners.
