Of Civil Wrongs and Rights: The Fred Korematsu Story
1999 Presidential Medal of Freedom recipient Fred Korematsu was probably never more American than when he resisted, and then challenged in court, the forced internment of Japanese Americans during World War II. Korematsu lost his landmark Supreme Court case in 1944, but never his indignation and resolve. This engrossing documentary reveals the untold story of the 40-year legal fight to turn a civil injustice into a civil rights victory. Interment survivor, Roy Ebihara leads a post-viewing discussion.
