HYDE PARK, N.Y. – The Franklin D. Roosevelt Presidential Library and Museum presents a Day of Remembrance program (virtual) ? in observance of the 80th anniversary of FDR’s signing of Executive Order 9066 — with historian Greg Robinson, author of “By Order of the President,” on Wednesday, Feb. 16, at 11 a.m. PST, with an encore presentation on the Day of Remembrance, Saturday, Feb. 19, at 11 a.m. PST.
Library Acting Director William Harris will moderate the discussion. The program is free, with no registration required, and will be streamed to the library’s official YouTube, Facebook, and Twitter accounts. This program is made possible through the generous support of Patti Hirahara.
In the tense weeks after Japan’s Dec. 7, 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor, many Americans, particularly those on the Pacific Coast, feared enemy attack and saw danger in every corner. Rumors and sensational media reports heightened the climate of fear. Signed by President Franklin D. Roosevelt on Feb. 19, 1942, Executive Order 9066 led to the incarceration of 120,000 people of Japanese descent — including approximately 80,000 American citizens — during World War II. It is widely viewed today as a serious violation of civil liberties. The Day of Remembrance (Feb. 19) is an annual observance of FDR’s signing of EO 9066.
Greg Robinson, a native of New York City, is professor of history at the Université du Québec à Montréal. His books include the award-winning “After Camp: Portraits of Midcentury Japanese American Life and Politics,” “A Tragedy of Democracy: Japanese Confinement In North America,” and “By Order of the President: FDR and the Internment of Japanese Americans.”
Patti Hirahara of Anaheim is the last-born descendant of the Hirahara family in the U.S., who arrived here in 1907, and is a third-generation photographer. Her family’s unique story of how her grandfather George Hirahara built a secret photo darkroom and mini-photo studio under his family’s barrack apartment 15-9-A in Heart Mountain, Wyo., and produced a collection of over 2,000 photographs is relatively unknown.
From 1943 to 1945, George and his high school-aged son Frank C. Hirahara took and processed what is considered to be the largest private collection of photos taken at this Japanese American incarceration camp. Through the generosity of Patti Hirahara, these photographs are now part of the George and Frank C. Hirahara Collection at the Washington State University Libraries.
