Let It Not Happen Again: Lessons of the Japanese American Exclusion
Cascadia welcomes guest speaker Clarence Moriwaki to speak about Japanese American exclusion during WWII, its local connections, and parallels to current events. In total more than 120,000 Japanese Americans were forcibly removed and incarcerated during the war, and this national strategy began with families on Bainbridge Island here in Washington. This guest speaker event is hosted by the Global Education Committee, in partnership with the Japanese Culture Club.
