Civil Liberties
Ongoing Program
The AjA Project’s Civil Liberties Project is an iterative program (2017-Present) encouraging youth and young adult participants to examine the history of Japanese-American incarceration during WWII and how it parallels their own personal histories as immigrants/refugees.
This program engages and educates participants and audience members about Executive Order 9066 and its lasting consequences, as well as its similarities to present-day civil rights struggles.
