On November 1, 2007, Stanford University hosted a talk on the Nanking Massacre.  Around 70 years have passed since the invasion of Nanking, China by the Japanese.  The talk began with light refreshments.  The refreshments consisted of Asian snacks.  It seems Asian snacks are not meant to have long shelf lives and consist mostly of jelly products such as red bean cakes, pineapple cakes, and rice crackers.

The panel discussion focused on the views of those with different racial and professional backgrounds, including a historical archivist, film producer, and an Japanese American judicial official.

The event was open to the public.  There were not many young people in the audience, but the event served as a platform on discrimination and tensions between Japanese and Chinese, which may be similar to tensions of other modern day wars such as those in Iraq, Pakistan, Central America.  The event was moderated by Judge Julie Tang of San Fransisco Superior Court.
