The 75th Anniversary of E.O. 9066<br />
NEW!<br />
On February 19, 1942, President Franklin Roosevelt signed E.O.<br />
9066, which authorized the mass removal and incarceration of<br />
more than 110,000 Americans of Japanese ancestry during World<br />
War II. This powerful lecture will give an overview and analysis of<br />
what really happened to Japanese Americans and why, with descriptions<br />
of racism, xenophobia, and cunningly opportunistic<br />
officials. Dr. Hata and artist Hatsuko Mary Higuchi were both<br />
incarcerated with their families in the U.S. government’s concentration<br />
camps, bringing a deeply personal element to this presentation.<br />
CSUDH and <strong>OLLI</strong> are marking the 75th anniversary of<br />
E.O.9066 with a variety of events and special exhibits.<br />
