Each year,
the Eugene Day of Remembrance Committee holds an
event to remember the internment of 120,000 Japanese Americans
in the West during WWII, and to combat the racist prejudices
that allowed it to happen. This year's event is a symposium
entitled "Forging Links to Resist Racism and Discrimination:
Lessons from the Japanese American Internment —
Latino Immigration in the New World Order." Panel discussions,
presentations, a potluck of Japanese and Latino foods
and a ceremony recognizing heroes in the local community
will take place throughout the day. See Saturday Calendar.
