About the Standing Guard Project
The Standing Guard Project commemorates the World War II Japanese American experience, including lessons that event taught us about the necessity of protecting and upholding the Constitutional rights of all United States citizens. It’s not simply about remembering the forced incarceration of Japanese American citizens, but also about education and awareness. Suggested donation $10 to help publish the second book.
