Join George Tanabe for “In the Footsteps of Uncle Primo” at this month’s Storytelling Night!
George will share stories about his uncle, who served in the 100th Battalion during World War II. “He would get drunk on Primo beer and relive his war experiences.” When George’s grandsons were growing up, they experienced those memories through the “Uncle Primo” stories he told them.
George is a retired professor of religion at University of Hawaii and published historian, and has spent his career exploring the intersection of fact and fiction in global religious literature.
