Voices from Bainbridge Island
November 9, 2017, 9:30 am – 10:30 am Library Collaboratory
Two Sessions: 9:30am and 12:30pm
Hear the personal experiences of two residents who were forcibly removed from their homes on Bainbridge Island in March, 1942 as a result of Executive Order 9066; hear from another whose parents used their local newspaper to speak out against this action and in support of the Japanese Americans; and, finally, hear from one who has spent years working to make sure this chapter in US history is not forgotten.
