Richard entered Stanford in 1969 as an electrical engineering major.  However, amid the height of the Vietnam War and the explosion of the people of color movement, questions about how people seemed to diminish and demonize others collided in his mind.  His life became too intellectualized and cynical. 

Richard’s first pilgrimage in 1976 to the Tule Lake Concentration Camp, where Japanese Americans had been incarcerated and stigmatized during WWII, turned his life around.  He knew from his heart that he had to dedicate himself to the Japanese American redress movement, and dove head-first into the Japanese American community.  He worked with Issei immigrants as ED of Yu-Ai Kai Senior Center in San Jose to honor and serve them.  He was a founding member of the National Coalition for Redress/Reparation, whose grassroots struggle for redress culminated in the Civil Liberties Act of 1988.  He still serves as Los Angeles’ NCRR Co-Chair.
