Hiroshima survivor to speak March 8
A Hiroshima survivor will speak about her experiences March 8 at the Nunemaker Center, 1506 Engel Road.
Sachiko Masuoka was 18 years old when Hiroshima, her home town, was destroyed by an atomic bomb. She lost her brother and her sister in the explosion. Masuoka moved to the United States in 1962. She has been talking about her experiences publicly for only the past couple of years.
Masuoka and translator, Yuki Miyamoto, will speak at 3 p.m. as part of the opening ceremony for a new Hiroshima exhibit at the center. The exhibit will be on display through March 15.
The exhibit is free and open to the public. For more information, visit ecmku.org.
