Join Us!
Join Densho for our 2025 Virtual Fundraiser, Remembering Resistance: Sustaining Densho’s Commitment to Community History. Tune in on November 5th, 5:00pm PT / 8:00pm ET for an evening of dialogue, reflection, and visioning as we honor the legacy of the Japanese American Redress Movement and explore its ongoing relevance today.
We are honored to welcome three community leaders who bring unique perspectives on the struggle for redress: Kathy Masaoka, a lifelong activist and founding member of the National Coalition for Redress and Reparations (NCRR); Don Tamaki, a longtime social justice lawyer who helped overturn Fred Korematsu’s conviction, and who served on the California Reparations Task Force; and traci kato-kiriyama, an award-winning artist, performer, writer, and community organizer. By recounting stories, reflections, and memories of the Redress Movement—alongside a poetry reading and video clips of the Commission on Wartime Relocation and Internment of Civilians (CWRIC) public hearings—this panel explores the lasting impacts of Redress and its connections to current movements for justice.
At Densho, we believe that remembering Redress is essential to telling a fuller, more complex story of Japanese American incarceration and its aftermath—one that highlights not only harm, but also resistance, resilience, and activism. Join us as we reflect on this powerful history, celebrate the people who made change possible, and renew our collective commitment to sustaining Densho’s mission of preserving community memory for generations to come.
