@DenshoProject Happy birthday Auntie Kaji! I remember vividly when you shared this story with your grandson Brian in the Densho studio.
Rarely do we glimpse the Japanese Incarcerations through the eyes of those who lived through it. My grandfather's art allows us a window into the hardships within the camps, providing a unique perspective on that historical chapter. #japaneseamericanhistory #neveragainisnow

Tule Lake is under threat AGAIN. The FAA & Modoc County are attempting to construct a massive 3 mile long, 8-10 foot high security fence on the land where 27,000+ Japanese Americans were imprisoned during WWII at Tule Lake. Submit public comment by 4/1! densho.org/catalyst/stop-…
Tule Lake is where my #Nikkei family was incarcerated for nearly four years. Once again we must #savetulelake, #stopthefence, and #movetheairfield. Please write to Commissioner Mitch Crosby at [email protected] Please share a copy w/us at [email protected].
Once again, we must speak out and tell the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) that building an airfield fence on the Tule Lake concentration camp site would desecrate an irreplaceable part of American history. rafu.com/2024/03/tule-l…
Love that @DenshoProject invited Lori Bannai to write this guest post about the importance of women in 3 crucial Japanese American Supreme Court cases.
Overturning the Supreme Court's rulings defending WWII incarceration helped push the Japanese American redress movement forward to victory. But the contributions of the women who led those cases have long been overlooked. densho.org/catalyst/the-w…
What a massive undertaking and impressive achievement by our friends at Densho and their partner Irei Project! For more on the origins of Densho, read our profile on founding Executive Director @tomikeda: sos.wa.gov/_assets/legacy… #JapaneseAmericanHistory #WWIIhistory
Together with the Irei Project, Densho is honored to announce the formal launch of Ireizō, an interactive and searchable website & online archive of every person of Japanese ancestry incarcerated in America’s internment and concentration camps during WWII. ireizo.com

Today's #DayofRemembrance marks 82 years since President Roosevelt signed Executive Order 9066, which authorized the wrongful incarceration of thousands of US citizens of Japanese descent during World War II — including Esther Takei Nishio.
Esther Takei Nishio was born #OTD in 1925. She was the first Japanese American not in a special category allowed to return to the West Coast from the concentration camps. In this clip, Esther describes some of the racism she faced when returning to the West Coast.
Lest we forget that prejudice can have potent consequences.
