DESCRIPTION:NEIGHBORS, NOT ENEMIES\n\nIn 1942, Executive Order 9066 ordered the forced 
 removal of Americans of Japanese ancestry to prison camps during WWII.  The 
 SJSU campus building now known as Yoshihiro Uchida Hall once served as a 
 registration center for local Japanese Americans prior to them being 
 forcibly removed to incarceration camps.\n\nJoin in a Day of Remembrance 
 workshop with speaker panels, participant dialogs and coalition building to 
 explore the theme: Neighbors, Not Enemies.\n\nDate & time: Thursday, 
 February 19th, 10:30 AM - 1:15 PM\n\nLocation: Diaz Compean Student Union 
 Theater at San José State University\n\nMore info:

 Inc., Center for Asian Pacific Islander Student Empowerment, Division of 
 Student Affairs, and Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, Office of 
 Community and Government Relations\n\n\nDAY OF REMEMBRANCE\n\nDay of 
 Remembrance is a national observance of the World War II incarceration of 
 Americans of Japanese descent in the United States. It is recognized 
 nationally on February 19th, the date that Executive Order 9066 was issued 
 and initiated this process. \n\nSJSU recognizes this day to acknowledge the 
 Japanese American experience and the campus’ connection to it. It is 
 important that we know our history in order to advocate for a more socially 
 just society moving forward. \n\n\nPARKING - Parking Information for
