Almost 80 years ago, President Franklin Roosevelt signed Executive Order 9066, which resulted in the forced removal and incarceration of approximately 120,000 men, women and children because of their Japanese ancestry. Fred Korematsu, a young man from Northern California, fought against that injustice.
Although the U.S. Supreme Court, in a decision that was later acknowledged to be “gravely wrong,” upheld his conviction in 1944, his renewed legal challenge in the 1980s was a historic milestone in the fight for justice for all Americans, regardless of race or national origin.
Supporting organizations include Asian Law Alliance and Japanese American Museum of San Jose.
