Our next storytelling event is on September 13 at 6 p.m.
On February 19, 1942, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed Executive Order 9066, thus ordering all Japanese-Americans to evacuate the West Coast. Ultimately, approximately 120,000 people were forced to relocate to internment camps across the country. This included thousands of people from Sacramento County.
EXECUTIVE ORDER 9066 IS POSTED ON THE CORNER OF FIRST & FRONT STREETS IN SAN FRANCISCO, CA — APRIL 1, 1942
Join us on Sept. 13 for “Executive Order 9066: Where did my neighbor go?” when we will hear the stories of four Japanese-Americans who were interned.
