The Philadelphia Chapter of the JACL (Japanese American Citizens League) was established as a consequence of the diaspora of Nikkei (Japanese Americans) from the West Coast of the United States as a result of events triggere. In Philadelphia, the Nikkei were a small group in a large urban area of non-Asian Pacific Americans, and its members worked to nurture Nikkei heritage and family traditions and to share them with others. Despite the chapter’s small size, it has proudly contributed to the leadership and funding of the national JACL.
The JACL is the largest and the oldest Asian American civil rights organization in the country. Established in 1929, we are a national grass roots organization with over 10,000 members in over 100 chapters.
