Yolo County Day of Remembrance EO9066 will feature:
-K-12 student poster contest - theme: Protect Our Constitution, No Kings
-Highlights of Rachel Maddow's podcast BURN ORDER which discusses all the lies perpetuated by the federal government during WWII to justify the removal of 125,000 Japanese Americans (2/3 were US citizens) on the false claim of "military necessity"
-Kintsukuroi movie by SF filmmaker Kerwin Berk which is one of the most complete story of the forced evacuation of Japanese Americans - his story focuses on a San Francisco family who lost their home and business and were detained in Topaz Utah incarceration camp.
The WWII lies demonizing the Japanese as "an enemy race" which can never be trusted is exactly like how immigrants and refugees are being targeted today as "criminals, drug dealers and rapists."
