This is a 1953 photo of Ina Sugihara, New York CORE. A Nisei like Yuri Kochiyama, she somehow managed to escape being forced into the internment camps for Japanese Americans during WWII*. &#13;
&#13;
Sugihara was one of the early members of New York CORE that met in the Harlem Ashram along with Jim Peck and James Farmer&#13;
in the early 1940's. Farmer, rather than stay at the Ashram where he had been living, lived with Sugihara and her boyfriend in downtown Manhattan for a short period. &#13;
&#13;
She was also active in the NAACP as early as the mid 1940's and  wrote for its magazine 'The Crisis'.&#13;
She is significant because she speaks to the existence of Asian American members in CORE and the civil rights movement as early as the 1940â€™s. &#13;
&#13;
She later married Bill Jones, a Black member of New York CORE. &#13;
&#13;
&#13;
The man standing next to her in the photo is identified as Charles Crawford.&#13;
