Welcome,

On February 19, 1942, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed Executive Order 9066, which led to the exclusion and incarceration of Japanese Americans during World War II. Families of Japanese ancestry were removed from the West Coast based solely on their nation of origin and veiled under the guise of national security. While behind barbed wire, keeping the family together and safe was of utmost importance to the incarcerees.

Today, also under the guise of national security, migrants from Central America are similarly being held in detention centers. Young children have been torn from their parents as they sought safety and asylum in the United States. Just like Japanese immigrants before WWII, these migrants dream of a decent life for their family and safety for their children. The legacy from the Japanese American redress movement is to make sure we stand up and speak out when we witness people being treated inhumanely by our government as we were during WWII.

The theme for this year’s Day of Remembrance program is “Behind Barbed Wire: Keeping Children Safe and Families Together.” It grew out of the scenes from last year that exposed the inhumane treatment of refugees and asylum seekers at our southern border as children were forcibly separated from their parents. The cruel government treatment brought back terrible memories of how Japanese Americans were treated during WWII.

“If we do not act, we shall surely be dragged down the long, dark, and shameful corridors of time reserved for those who

possess power without compassion, might without morality, and strength without sight.”

Martin Luther King, Jr. “A Time to Break Silence,” April 4, 1967

NP just completed its first FAMILIES BELONG TOGETHER Quilt. The Quilt is a tangible show of support for immigrants and refugees who suffer from detention, family separation and harsh conditions at the border. Funds donated will go to detainees and families who have been separated.

Help us make a second quilt! We also need help spreading the word about the Quilt to get more groups/individuals involved.

Find us on facebook and Instagram, or reach out to us at nikkeiprogressives@gmail.com

With the passage of EO 9066, racism, fear, and greed were allowed to surface above our nation’s commitment to its core value of equal protection under the law. Go For Broke National Education Center is committed to educating and inspiring people to act with equality and courage in life everyday so that this dark history is never repeated.

The Japanese American National Museum is honored to again participate in the 2019 Day of Remembrance in Los Angeles. The human tragedy brought on by the signing of Executive Order 9066 must never be forgotten and never repeated. In joining with other organizations to mark this day, we are reminded of the power of solidarity and the strength of our collective voices.

The Manzanar Committee will hold its 50th annual Manzanar Pilgrimage, Saturday, April 27, 2019 at the Manzanar National Historic Site. The Pilgrimage serves as an important reminder of what can happen when our country fails to uphold Constitutional rights for all, whether immigrants, Muslims or communities of color. Please check our website at manzanarcommittee.org; email 50thpilgrimage@manzanarcommittee.org or call (323) 662-5102 for more information.

NIKKEI FOR CIVIL RIGHTS AND REDRESSNCRR-la.org

Kizuna is proud to join the organizing committee the Los Angeles Day of Remembrance program. It is vital that we continue community education efforts that bringing this story to the next generation, preserving the legacy of the the World War II incarcerees and those who fought for redress, so that this troubling time in history is never repeated.

OCA-Greater Los Angeles is the local chapter of OCA - Asian Pacific American Advocates, a national nonprofit organization founded in 1973 and dedicated to advancing the social, political, and economic well-being of Asian Pacific Americans (APA) in the United States. From its inception in 1991, OCA-GLA has made an impact in the greater LA area through community service, advocacy and organizing, education and leadership development. OCA-GLA has fostered the active participation of APAs in both civic and national matters, striving to instill a sense of social responsibility through leadership opportunities and community empowerment activities. OCA-GLA is proud to be affiliated with the Day of Remembrance Committee and the annual observance of President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s Executive Order 9066 on February 19, 1942, which led to the wrongful incarceration of 120,000 Japanese Americans living on the West Coast during WWII. The February 16 convening reminds all of us how critical are community unity, vigilance and response as the nation grapples with confrontation and erosion of our civil liberties.

The importance of the Day of Remembrance: In 1942, when the nation turned its back on Japanese Americans, only a few stood up for us. The Issei and Nisei suffered tremendously. The Day of Remembrance is an important reminder about the long-lasting impact of government actions on men, women and children, and the importance of not allowing such travesties to occur again- to any group.

Because of their WWII incarceration, Nikkei understand the long-lasting impacts of governmental injustices. It’s important to extend our support to those being maligned and mistreated by the government today. The refugees and asylum seekers are people and deserve to be treated humanely.

Progressive Asian Network for Action (PANA) supports the Day of Remembrance to take a stand for the civil rights of immigrants. Separating children from their families and incarcerating them is similar to the treamtment Japanese Americans during WWII. PANA not only condemns the atrocities by Trump but seeks positive proactive legislation for immigrants, such as an immediate path to citizenship, a “clean” dream act, immediate reunification of families stuck in courts, the end to deportation of Asian former prisoners and mutually beneficial foreign policies that would not drive workers out of their countries in order to survive.
