UCLA Library Special Collections Buddhist Churches of America Records
This video was produced and edited by Edward Kip Hannan for Buddhist Churches of America and UCLA Library Special Collections to promote and document our acquisition of the Buddhist Churches of America Records (Collection 2364). The collection includes correspondence between headquarters in the United States, Jodo Shinshu Hongwanji Headquarters in Kyoto, Japan, and individual temples. It is also comprised of meeting minutes, conference materials, education-related records, publications, financial records, photographs, and audiovisual materials in a wide variety of formats. The Buddhist Churches of America (BCA) is a national organization of the Jodo Shinshu Hongwanji sect in the continental United States. Formerly known as the Buddhist Mission of North America (BMNA), the BCA is the largest Japanese American Buddhist organization and is currently headquartered in San Francisco, California.
