Our experiment with democracy has been fraught with both elation and sorrow. And during both, the only thing people had to cling to was this idea of "freedom". Now, as we are faced with a post-9/11 society, it seems as though people are once again looking for something to cling to. In hopes of addressing that need a new National Center for the Preservation of Democracy has been commissioned for L.A. To espouse the mission and form of the National Center, TPR was pleased to talk with Irene Hirano, President of the Japanese American National Museum and Brenda Levin, Principal of Levin & Associates Architects.
