DAY OF REMEMBERANCE - Event Honoring Gordon Hirabayashi
The Inlandia Institute and the Riverside Metropolitan Museum will hold a joint Day of Remembrance
Dr. Cherstin M. Lyon will read and discuss Prisons and Patriots: Japanese American Wartime Citizenship, Civil Disobedience, and Historical Memory. "Prisons and Patriots adds welcome depth and analysis to a growing number of works that are now disclosing two increasingly important reasons the Japanese American experience during World War II needs further research: first, the complex ways in which the Japanese American communities responded to the unconstitutional barbarity with which the U.S. government treated them and, second, the fascinating ways in which postwar actors sought to play roles in the crafting of a metanarrative for the ethnic group, the war, and the nation. Lyon accomplishes this by focusing on the lives of forty-one Nisei, with sensitive oral histories contextualized by solid archival research. She is especially effective in juxtaposing the well-known story of Gordon Hirabayashi with the little-known experiences of forty-one other draft resisters who were imprisoned during the war and ostracized by their leaders and communities for decades thereafter. This is a fine book, much needed at this point in time." Gordon Kiyoshi Hirabayashi (April 23, 1918 – January 2, 2012) was an American sociologist, best known for his principled resistance to the Japanese American internment during World War II, and the court case which bears his name, Hirabayashi v. United States. Prof. Lyon is the director of the Public and Oral Program at the California State University San Bernardino.
