Audiobook Break is proud to present the Japanese American Civil Liberties Collection from LA Theatre Works. Today we begin with Act I of For Us All by Jeanne Sakata, directed by Anna Lyse Erikson. The play stars Josh Stamberg and Joy Osmanski and features Edward Asner and a full cast.
For Us All tells the story of a court battle fought to overturn the conviction of Fred Korematsu, who resisted incarceration in the Japanese internment camps during WWII.
