JACL Teacher Training Workshop - Sacramento, CA

Several times in our nation’s history, political leaders have been faced with balancing constitutional rights with issues of national security. These decisions were colored by many factors, including wartime hysteria, misinformation, sensationalized media, and racism. The workshop session will cover the historical background of the Japanese American incarceration during World War II, connections to current events and other communities, and the ongoing lessons of discrimination, civil liberties, and justice.

JACL workshops make explicit the lessons of the WWII Japanese American experience through content that emphasizes the universal issues of identity, community, patriotism, civil rights, and justice that continue to be relevant. Including perspectives from community activists and former incarcerees!
