In today's Seattle P-I, there is a compelling story of a Japanese immigrant who, in 1902, graduated from the University of Washington law school and passed the bar exam but was denied admission to the state bar on grounds that a person of Japanese descent was not entitled to become a naturalized citizen. The Washington state bar is about to posthumously admit him. An excellent article about an incident of racism in our past. When I took Washington State History in high school, incidents such as this, were covered up.
