Patsy dreamed of being a doctor. She attended a segregated college. Ten medical schools turned her down. She attended law school instead. She passed the bar. No firm would hire her. So, she opened her own, becoming the first Japanese-American woman to practice law in Hawaii. — PolitiTweet.org

In the 1950s, she became involved in politics, working with Japanese-American veterans suffering discrimination despite honorable service in WWII. She ran for office and won. Then Hawaii became a state. She ran for Congress. She lost, ran again, and won. https://t.co/zPnViKsU6D — PolitiTweet.org
