Each year, February 19th brings us back to a crucial date in 1942. On that day, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed Executive Order 9066, a decision that authorized the forced removal and incarceration of over 125,000 people of Japanese ancestry, most of them U.S. citizens.

Diana Morita Cole was born in the Minidoka concentration camp, Idaho. Although the closure of the camps began in December 1944, Diana’s family still lived in Minidoka until October 1945. When she was just a year and a half old, her family left for Chicago, Illinois.

“If I couldn’t accept curfew, how could I accept this? … I couldn’t, I can’t accept it. It’s worse.”

Densho Oral History Program Manager Virginia Yamada describes the importance of documenting present-day voices and experiences as we live through historically significant and unprecedented events that demand critical attention and documentation.

During his first Christmas at the Minidoka concentration camp in Idaho in 1942, Tsuguo “Ike” Ikeda remembers that the holiday spirit still found a way to shine.

Today, on Fred Korematsu Day, we honor the man whose refusal to comply with the mass removal and confinement of Japanese Americans during World War II became one of the most significant challenges to government authority in U.S. history.

It’s all connected. The pedophiles that run mainstream media wanted Trump in office to protect each other. It was never that Trump is a better president. Every one in his cabinet is connected to Epstein. He knows this day will come when they all have to protect each other.
