SUMMARY:Preserve & Protect Our Freedoms- NJAHS Annual Awards Event
DESCRIPTION: As we commemorate the 75th anniversary of Executive Order 9066\, this year\, we are reminded of the many struggles faced by Japanese Americans but also others less fortunate and marginalized in today’s society. \nJoin us to honor Keynote speaker Dr. Cruz Reynoso\, civil rights attorney and the first Latino California Supreme Court justice and Presidential Medal of Freedom awardee for his unwavering passion for social justice: his advocacy on behalf of farmworkers\, his call for human dignity of the rural poor\, and civil rights for the most vulnerable\, marginalized communities. This year also marks the foundation planning for the newest entry into the National Park Service system\, the Honouliuli National Monument site and the opening of the Honouliuli Education Center (at JCCH).  And in doing so\, we recognize the advocacy and achievement of the Japanese Cultural Center of Hawaii and Carole Hayashino\, its executive director\, who raised awareness and pressed for the recognition of his historic site -an US Army facility in Hawaii that unjustly incarcerated thousands of Japanese Americans in the aftermath of Pearl Harbor.\nAnd we pay tribute to Art Shibayama and Grace Shimizu of Campaign for Justice\, for their quest for redress and education for Japanese Latin Americans of WWII. \nA FREE public program  4PM – 5PM  will be held outside of Building 640 to shed light on the civil liberty lessons of WWII and to highlight the new challenges we face to preserve and protect our freedoms today. \n================================================= \nA paid SPECIAL EVENT –Reservations Only- Sit Down Dinner will follow inside Building 640. 5:15PM – 7:30PM with specially-catered tastings from\nLa Mar Cebicheria Peruana and a sit down dinner from Venga Paella.

SUMMARY:Middle and High School Teachers Summer Institute
DESCRIPTION:COURSE IS NOW CLOSED \nOur 2 day institute will introduce and/or reacquaint you with place based and inquiry based learning that meets Common Core and C3 Framework for Social Studies Standards. Our goal is to provide you with practical and useful ideas for implementing Social Studies education through learning activities and student generated research. This institute is framed by the compelling question\, “In want ways did place determine the fate of Japanese Americans after the bombing of Pearl Harbor?” to provoke students to pose meaningful questions\, apply critical thinking and build their own historical interpretations. \nUsing a regional perspective\, we dispel the current narrative of a single experience for Japanese Americans as we draw deeper conclusions and understanding of how and why this injustice took place. Case studies will compare pre and post war communities in Hawaii\, Seattle\, and California. This institute includes a visit to the Bainbridge Island Exclusion Memorial\, Wing Luke Museum\, and a walking tour of the International District. \n$250 professional development stipend upon completion of all seminar requirements. An additional $50 stipend for sharing curriculum! \nClick HERE to view the flyer. \nFill out the flyer and mail\, fax\, or drop off the $25 refundable registration fee by June 1\, 2016 to: \nNational Japanese American Historical Society\n1684 Post St. San Francisco\, CA. 94115\nPhone: 415-921-5007 / Fax: 415-921-5087 / Email: njahs@njahs.org
