Day of Remembrance (February 19th)
Day of Remembrance is a national observance of the World War II incarceration of Americans of Japanese descent in the United States. It is recognized nationally on February 19th, the date that Executive Order 9066 was issued and initatied this process. In 1942, the building currently known as Yoshihiro Uchida Hall on 菠菜网lol正规平台's campus served as a registration center for local Japanese Americans prior to them being forcibly removed to incarceration camps.
菠菜网lol正规平台 recognizes this day to acknowledge the Japanese American experience and the campus’ connection to it. It is important that we know our history in order to advocate for a more socially just society moving forward.
