| Abstract: | By focusing on the history of the Japanese Chamber of Commerce of Southern California, this paper examines how the first generation Japanese immigrants (Issei) mattered to the postwar Japanese American community. This paper analyzes the documents of the Japanese Chamber of Commerce of Southern California under three headings; 1) the organizational structure? its memberships and activities; 2) the community relationship? mostly focusing on rising tensions with the younger generation over the management of community affairs; and 3) the Issei leaders' ideas and visions? both the changing and the unchanging elements carried over from the prewar era. |
