Over 120,000 Japanese Americans were forcibly uprooted from their homes during WWII simply because of their heritage. We cannot allow history to repeat itself.
This Day of Remembrance, we recommit ourselves to the fight for justice, equality, and civil rights.
To maximize profits, many slaveholders gave enslaved people only the bare minimum of food and shelter, forcing them to work from sunrise to sunset. A system built for exploitation and minimal care. 183 days to Slavery Remembrance Day. #CountDowntoSRD
Southern enslaved infants faced mortality rates twice as high as white infants. Half of enslaved infants didn’t survive, many due to chronic undernourishment. We must commemorate their lives and memorialize their suffering. 184 days to Slavery Remembrance Day. #CountDowntoSRD
