The following description comes from the event organizer.

Join us for the 7th Annual South Sound Japanese American Day of Remembrance. Join this resource fair to commemorate the eviction of Tacoma’s Japanese Americans and place this event within a larger context.

Educators will learn more about the various sites, events, organizations, and people in western Washington who are teaching the public about Japanese American history. Clock hours will be available for K-12 teachers. This will be followed by a live performance and a brief procession to Union Station to remember the Japanese American community that were forced to report to the Tacoma train station.

The programming will conclude with a panel conversation “Making the Invisible Visible: “Righting” Asian American and Pacific Islander Histories,” moderated by public historian Tamiko Nimura at “Scholarly Selections.”
