The Day of Remembrance commemorates the anniversary
of Executive Order 9066 which led to the forced
incarceration of 120,000 people of Japanese descent, two-thirds
of whom were American citizens. Each year, we gather to remember
that great civil liberties tragedy from over seventy years ago and
each one of us reflects on what that event means to us today.
The Day of Remembrance is an event that aims to
bring different communities together in order to build trust,
respect and understanding among all people and to renew our
pledge to fight for equality, justice and peace. |
