Morning Session: Respond, Resist, and Resiliency
Hear from noted scholars Dr. Tetsuden Kashima (Professor Emeritus, University of Washington) and Margaret Chon (Professor, Seattle University School of Law) to learn about and discuss how Americans of Japanese Ancestry responded and resisted U.S. military orders that forcibly removed and imprisoned them with out due process or evidence of wrongdoing.
