DESCRIPTION:Oakland Asian Cultural Center presents Resistance At Tule Lake, a film that 
 overturns the myth of Japanese Americans as obedient government 
 collaborators during their WWII incarceration.  Konrad Aderer's seminal 
 film reveals the long-marginalized story of Tule Lake Segregation Center, 
 the overcrowded, highly-militarized concentration camp where over 12,000 
 Japanese Americans were demonized and punished for speaking out against the 
 injustice of their incarceration.   \n \n"Resistance at Tule Lake" is a 
 potent piece of history at a time when the United States is once again 
 feeling less than hospitable.  -- The New York Times.\n \nA panel of 3 
 distinguished Japanese American community leaders will introduce Tule 
 Lake’s history and its relevance to current times before the screening 
 and entertain questions afterwards. \n \nThey are: Hiroshi Hashiwagi (age 
 97), Tule Lake dissident and playwright whose narration is featured in the 
 film; Chizuko Omori (age 88), producer of the acclaimed film about the 
 incarceration, Rabbit in the Moon, and member of Nikkei Resisters; and John 
 Ota, activist in the campaign for the Civil Liberties Act of 1988, and 
 retired attorney.\n \nPlease join us for an insightful and inspiring 
 afternoon.\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2019/02/20/18821311.php
