strategy and education advisor at The Fred T. Korematsu Institute - , California, United States
The Fred T. Korematsu Institute remembers, instructs, and honors Americans who have suffered from prejudice, discrimination and civil rights injustices (particularly the Japanese Americans who were interned during World War II). The Institute works to keep these lessons alive so students can better understand their civil rights and civil liberties and use the Korematsu story as a concrete reference in linking the story of the Japanese American incarceration during World War II to the more well-known stories of Martin Luther King, Jr., and Cesar Chavez. The Fred T. Korematsu Institute is a fiscally sponsored project of Community Initiatives.
