Asian students & the A-bomb

Jun 08, 2026

Interesting exhibit now on display in the lobby of Hiroshima peace memorial museum about the 200 Asian students who were trapped in Japan during WW2.

Some affected by the Atomic bombing of Hiroshima. It's hard to tell how much they were allowed to study vs being 'mobilized' to work for the military like most other students in Japan.

It's interesting as it widens the view of who lived here in 1945, but I feel like there are a lot of difficulties not discussed here openly enough. I'll try to read up more about it more.
