Heritage Minute


During the Fall of 2018, Asahi Baseball Association received a request for casting for a new Heritage Minute for a historical video about the Asahi Baseball team and the discrimination faced by Japanese Canadians during the Second World War.  Filming took place in East Vancouver and Hope.

One of our members was chosen to play a role in the video. See if you can find him. 
​
The final video was released in 2019.
