ALTERNATIVE FACTS: The Lies of Executive Order 9066 is an award-winning documentary feature film about the false information and political influences which led to the World War II incarceration of Japanese Americans. The film exposes the lies used to justify the decision and the cover-up that went all the way to the United States Supreme Court. ALTERNATIVE FACTS also examines the parallels to the current climate of fear, targeting of immigrant communities, and similar attempts to abuse the powers of the government.
