Lecture: Marie Vallejo, author of "Dauntless"
Historian and author Marie Vallejo shares her research into the making of her ground-breaking book “Dauntless,” an account of the heretofore untold stories of pre-WW2 Filipino-American immigrants and how men working in the fields of California and Hawaii, the canneries of Alaska and Washington, serving in wealthy homes or attending college transitioned into the First and Second Filipino Infantry Regiments, the Congressional Gold Medal American fighting force which would infiltrate their homeland, occupied by the Imperial Japanese forces immediately following Pearl Harbor.
Presented by ASUPS Lectures. This event is free and open to the public.
