SUMMARY:Traveling Exhibit- Then They Came for Me
DESCRIPTION:Then They Came for Me: \nIncarceration of Japanese Americans\nDuring WWII and the Demise of Civil Liberties \nJanuary 18 – May 27\, 2019 \nDownload info here \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWHEN:\nJanuary 18 – May 27\, 2019\nPublic Reception: January 18\, 2018\, 7-9 p.m.\nVisiting hours: Wednesday – Sunday\, 10 a.m. – 6 p.m.\nAdmission is free and open to the public\n\n\nWHERE:\n100 Montgomery Street\nThe Presidio\, San Francisco\nHome of Futures Without Violence\n\n\nWHAT:\nThen They Came for Me: Incarceration of Japanese Americans during WWII and the Demise of Civil Liberties is a multimedia exhibition featuring imagery\n\n\n\nby noted American photographers Dorothea Lange\, Clem Albers and Ansel Adams along with photographers commissioned by the U.S. government’s War Relocation Authority. Presented by the Jonathan Logan Family Foundation in partnership with the National Japanese American Historical Society and J-Sei\, the exhibition tells the story of the forced removal of 120\,000 Japanese American citizens and residents from their homes during WWII\, without due process or other constitutional protections. Executive Order 9066\, signed by President Franklin D. Roosevelt on February 19\, 1942 set in motion the incarceration of all Americans of Japanese ancestry living on or near the West Coast. More than 75 years later this dark chapter illuminates new challenges brought on by fear mongering and racism at the highest levels of the U.S. government as seen in today’s state-sanctioned anti-immigrant fervor and the Muslim Ban. The exhibition’s venue at the Presidio of San Francisco holds deep significance because in 1942\, the military proclamations and Civilian Eviction Orders leading to the mass removal and incarceration were issued from the Presidio-based Western Defense Command. \nThen They Came for Me presents this historical event from multiple perspectives. Drawing upon the powerful images uncovered from the National Archives for the book Un-American: The Incarceration of Japanese Americans During World War II by Chicago-based photo historians Richard Cahan and Michael Williams\, the exhibition features works documenting the eviction of Japanese Americans from their homes and their subsequent lives in the incarceration camps. Among the commissioned works\, the exhibition also presents images of daily life in the camps by artists and inmates Toyo Miyatake and Miné Okubo. Also included are photographs by contemporary photographer Paul Kitagaki Jr.\, whose work on this subject was recently published in National Geographic. \nCombined with additional artifacts made by incarcerees\, historical documents\, videos and a rich array of cultural\, historical\, curatorial and political programs the exhibition illuminates this historical event from several vantage points that includes the rise of state-sanctioned anti-Japanese sentiment in the late 19th century\, conditions within the camps\, the irreplaceable loss of many Japanese Americans’ homes and personal property\, the resettlement process\, and Japanese American postwar activism fueled by the experience of wartime incarceration. \nThen They Came for Me will host a robust series of programs including events featuring author Duncan Williams with the musician scholars No No Boy\, Kambara + Dancers\, and a discussion about tracking down the subjects of Dorothea Lange’s photographs with photo historians Richard Cahan and Michael Williams and Lange’s official biographer\, Elizabeth Partridge. Additional programming will include discussions on the current state of U.S. immigrant detention camps\, the Muslim Ban and rise of Islamophobic hate crimes\, film screenings\, music\, family activities and more. \nThen They Came for Me travels from its second showing at The International Center of Photography in New York (2017-18) following its debut at Alphawood Gallery in Chicago (2017). The upcoming third iteration will offer a look at the incarceration specific to the West Coast. \nThe exhibition is designed by Tomomi Itakura of i-k design\, formerly the Director of Exhibition Design at the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco and the Senior Designer at the Museum of Fine Arts\, Boston.\n\n\nWHO:\nThen They Came for Me is presented by the Jonathan Logan Family Foundation and is curated in partnership with nationwide and Bay Area-based Japanese American communities.\n\n\nMORE INFO:\nThenTheyCame.org\n\n\nMEDIA   OPPS:\nFor media kit\, press preview invitation and additional media assets\, please contact:\nKimberly Verde\, kv@FRAMEWORKsf.com\nDanielle Smith\, danielle@FRAMEWORKsf.com\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Jonathan Logan Family Foundation\nThe Jonathan Logan Family Foundation supports organizations that advance social justice by promoting world-changing work in investigative journalism\, documentary film\, and arts and culture.

SUMMARY:TEACHER WORKSHOPS-for Grades 4-12
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a workshop WE ARE ALL AMERICANS that provides a backdrop to the special exhibition Then They Came for Me: Incarceration of Japanese Americans during WWII and the Demise of Civil Liberties (https://thentheycame.org/). The exhibition examines a terrifying time in U.S. history when the federal government scapegoated and indefinitely detained 120\,000 people of Japanese ancestry\, and draws parallels to tactics chillingly resurgent today. The workshops provide greater historical and cultural context to the exhibition and invites inquiry into this dark chapter in American history. What was the chronology that led to the decision to forcibly remove Japanese Americans\, two-thirds of whom were American citizens\, from the West Coast? How did Japanese Americans respond to the violation of their civil liberties? And what\, as a nation\, have we learned that can help us address the present-day issues of immigration\, racism\, and mass incarceration? This workshop is similar to the February 2\, 2019\, San Jose Workshop. Funded in part by the Japanese American Confinement Sites Grant\, administered by the National Park Service. \nWorkshop participants will receive:\n• A $50 honorarium for each workshop.\n• Support for a class study trip to the exhibition Then They Came for Me at the Presidio\n• Teacher curriculum\, resources\, and strategies for guiding student inquiry\n• Continental breakfast and light lunch \nWorkshop Details\nThen They Came for Me: The Legacy of Japanese American Incarceration 1947 to the Present (See page 2 for more info)\nLocation: Military Intelligence Service (MIS) Historical Learning Center 640 Mason St. The Presidio San Francisco\, CA 94129\nSpeaker: Don Tamaki\nTour: MIS & Then They Came for Me\nDate: April 27\, 2019\nTime: 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM\nWe will send you info for free tours and bus support when you register. \nFor information email: grace@njahs.org \nDownload Application for Here
