SUMMARY:We are LGBT Nikkei Extended to July 15th
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] \nImage is “A Glimmer” By Julia LaChica (2020)\n\n\n\nJulia LaChica is a queer Japanese-Filipino American Visual Artist. Born in San Francisco and raised at North Ping Yuen Public Housing. She attended public school during “Operation Integrate”—-desegregation busing— taking her from Chinatown to Potrero Hill where she would spend time with classmates at the Sunnydale Public Housing Project. \nFor lack of a better word\, Julia was a latchkey kid\, deeply immersed in street culture and free to play without supervision.  Her work is deeply informed by her upbringing as a Nisei daughter and her life within BIPOC and LGBTQI communities of San Francisco and Oakland. \nAfter several years as a working artist\, Julia returned to school and received her BFA in Industrial Design from CCA\, worked as a Product Designer for 20 years and is now dedicating all her time to Visual Arts. Julia works in Acrylic\, Mixed Media Collage\, Assemblage Art Printmaking and Digital Art. \n\n\nCuratorial Statement:\n\nExhibition dates: May 14 – July 15 \nThere have always been queer Japanese Americans. Since the earliest days of Japanese migration to the United States\, there have been Japanese Americans who defy traditional gender and sexualtiy. Whether it be the poet Yone Noguchi or 1960s activist Kiyoshi Kuromiya\, queer Japanese Americans have been among us. The Japanese American Citizens League famously became the first non-LGBT oriented civil rights organization to endorse gay marriage in 1994. \nYet\, there seems to be an invisible wall between the two identities. \nWhen operating within the Japanese American community\, the support for LGBTQ people seems to be an outward show of support rather than an embracement. Thus\, the identities almost seem mutually exclusive. As American queer scholar Eve Sedgwick described an “epistemology of the closet”\, Nikkei scholar Andrew Leong describes an “epistemology of the pocket.” As LGBTQ people in America have “a closet” to be themselves\, being a minority within a minority affords queer Nikkei even less space. \nThis exhibition aims to bring that issue to light and radically give Nikkei space to queer Nikkei. By doing so\, the exhibition intends to not only send a message that LGBTQ Nikkei they are welcome and embraced within San Francisco’s Japantown community\, but to show the greater Japanese American community that LGBTQ people are amongst them. \nLocation: NJAHS Peace Gallery 1684 Post St San Francisco CA 94115 \nEmail: njahs@njahs.org \nPhone # 415-921-5007 \n\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:Farm Labor While Confined
DESCRIPTION:War Relocation Authority Incarceree Farm Labor Teacher Education Project\n  \n– Free Online Workshop for 4th Grade to 12th Grade Humanities\, History\, and Social Studies Teachers –\nDuring World War II\, the federal government forcibly removed people of Japanese ancestry on the West Coast and imprisoned them in American concentration camps. A little-known part of their story is that the War Relocation Authority (WRA) expected them to grow food to feed themselves\, contribute to the war effort\, and make barren lands flourish under the most difficult of circumstances. How did the incarcerees grapple with these demands? \nMark your calendar for our next dynamic workshop – Farm Labor While Confined. Our case studies will take us from concentration camp farms to sugar beet fields to potato harvests across five states. We will focus on six incarceration sites: Tule Lake (CA)\, Minidoka (ID)\, Gila River (AZ)\, Poston (AZ)\, Amache (CO)\, and Heart Mountain (WY). Part of our discussion will address the Temporary Farm Leave Program and the Farm Labor Camps in which incarcerees worked on private farms and large agricultural tracts that were facing labor shortages due to the war. \nJoin your colleagues for open-ended inquiry into this important historic moment when the personal experience of imprisoned people of Japanese ancestry intersects with 1940s US labor history. What is the legacy of their agricultural labor on the Western American landscape? \n  \nJoin your colleagues for open-ended inquiry into Japanese American incarcerees’ farm labor during World War II \nThese two-day\, 3-1/2 hour online or 6 hour in-person interactive workshops\, (length depends on regional location)\, explores our topic through examination of primary source documents\, case studies\, images\, and secondary sources in the Farm Labor While Confined curriculum. Sessions will be broken up with 15-minute breaks. \nThe curriculum will focus the following:\n– Farming in the War Relocation Centers\n– Temporary Farm Labor\n– Department of Agriculture Farm Labor Camps \nSeparate curriculum is designed elementary and for secondary students. \nLimited Space!
