 during COVID: https://asianart.org/what-to-expect/\n\n\nFeb. 19 is the 80th 
 anniversary of Executive Order 9066, which authorized the imprisonment of 
 Japanese Americans during World War II. Join us to mark this occasion with 
 an evening focusing on the forces that led to the incarceration, its 
 current-day parallels, and reparations for both Japanese Americans and 
 Black Americans.\n\nThe night begins with a screening of Jon Osaki’s 
 award-winning documentary “Alternative Facts: The Lies of Executive Order 
 9066,” which considers the political forces and misinformation behind the 
 incarceration and draws connections to the current scapegoating of 
 immigrants and abuses of power. \n\nFollowing the screening, the filmmaker 
 joins Sheryl Davis, executive director of the \nSan Francisco Human Rights 
 Commission, and Don Tamaki, an attorney for the plaintiff in Korematsu v. 
 United States, for a discussion about the ties between the Japanese 
 American redress campaign and the Black reparations movement. Former KPIX 
 and KRON4 News anchor Wendy Tokuda moderates.\n\nThe evening also includes 
 a shakuhachi (Japanese flute) performance by Masayuki Koga.\n\n\nABOUT THE 
 PARTICIPANTS\n\nSheryl Davis is executive director of the San Francisco 
 Human Rights Commission, where she is leading the city’s efforts to 
 promote racial equity, including reparations for the Black community. 
 \n\nMasayuki Koga is a master shakuhachi (Japanese flute) player and 
 teacher and the founder and director of the Japanese Music Institute in 
 Berkeley, California. He started learning the Kinko school of shakuhachi 
 with his father, Kiichi Koga, and then studied both the Kinko and Tozan 
 schools with Kazan Saki in Tokyo. He has performed in most major cities in 
 Canada, Germany, and Japan. Koga collaborated with new age musician Kitaro 
 on a Grammy-nominated CD project, represented Japan at the World Cultural 
 Festival in Cuba, and performed solo at the World Shakuhachi Festival in 
 Kyoto, Japan. \n\nJon Osaki is an award-winning filmmaker who has directed 
 and produced promotional, educational, narrative, and documentary films. 
 His initial interest in film grew from his desire to share the stories of 
 the Japanese Community Youth Council, where he has served as executive 
 director since 1996. He is currently producing film projects for the Stop 
 Repeating History campaign focusing on social justice issues such as the 
 movement for Black reparations and dispelling the model minority 
 myth.\n\nDon Tamaki, senior counsel at Minami Tamaki LLP, was a lead 
 attorney in the landmark Supreme Court case Korematsu v. the United States, 
 which overturned Fred Korematsu’s conviction for refusing as an American 
 citizen to be incarcerated during World War II on account of his racial 
 ancestry. Tamaki is past member of the board of Glide Foundation and is 
 board president of the San Francisco Japantown Foundation. \n\nWendy Tokuda 
 is an award-winning journalist who anchored evening news broadcasts in 
 California for nearly 35 years, including on KPIX-TV, the San Francisco CBS 
 affiliate, and KRON4 News.
