FACEism: A panel discussion on history and accountability

FYI TODAY at 3PM PST: National Museum of American History
February 19 is the Day of Remembrance, the annual recognition of President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s signing of Executive Order 9066 and the subsequent incarceration of nearly 120,000 people of Japanese descent living mostly in Washington, Oregon, and California. To commemorate the thousands of people affected by this human rights abuse, our discussion this year features news anchor and filmmaker David Ono and his documentary series FACEism, which examines how racism is rooted in often ignored and painful histories. Panelists will consider the documentary and explore how community activists further discussions about history, accountability, and injustice in our past, present, and future.
