Class/Workshop
In Person
Japanese American Museum of San Jose
535 N. Fifth Street San Jose, California, United States of America

Date: Feb. 21, 2015


The California Legacy Voice Network has scheduled three professional development workshops for teachers and administrators in Region 5 (Santa Clara, Santa Cruz, Monterey Counties) at the Japanese American Museum of San Jose in San Jose's Japantown.

Guest speakers (Jeanne Wakatsuki Houston, Karen Korematsu and others) will address four critical stories:
· The California’s assembly centers
· The Japanese American Internment
· Fred Korematsu’s story
· The family stories of local Legacy Voices
Participants will receive materials to share with students and colleagues at their schools and school districts, thus preparing them to become legacy voices. This Japanese American Confinement Sites grant is sponsored by the National Park Service, the Korematsu Institute for Civil Rights and Education, and the Japanese American Museum of San Jose   (JAMsj).

When registering, please pick one date.
