On this day, we honor the experiences and memories of Japanese American communities affected by the WWII incarceration and its legacy, and reflect on lessons that this grave injustice holds for us today. At 3 pm, artist Maya Jeffereis and members of the community will lead a durational reading of Isamu Noguchi’s 1942 essay “I Become a Nisei.” A conversation about the text will follow the reading.
If you are a member of the Japanese American community and would like to make a group reservation, please email education@noguchi.org.
