SUMMARY:Minoru Yasui Day
DESCRIPTION:In 2016 Oregon’s legislature designated March 28 Minoru Yasui Day to honor the state’s only Presidential Medal of Freedom awardee’s tireless fight for equality\, justice\, democracy\, and civil rights. This year the Min Yasui Day program is scheduled for Saturday\, April 1\, from 1 to 3 pm. In person at the White Stag Building (70 NW Couch Street\, Portland) and streaming live on YouTube. \nThis year’s program will feature \n➢ The Man: Reflections from Dr. Homer Yasui\, Honorary Chair of the Min Yasui Legacy Project and historian extraordinaire. \n➢ His Work: Reflections from Dr. Robin Yasui\, Minoru Yasui’s niece\, on Min’s life work as a Colorado attorney addressing injustice across all populations. In addition to the Asian population for which he is most well-known\, he advocated for the rights of women and LGBTQ community\, Native and African Americans\, Jews\, and Latinos. \n➢ His Legacy Today Panel (with Jessica Asai\, Weston Koyama\, and Anna Reutin): The importance and relevance of Min’s work across generations\, from high school to social justice lawyers. \n➢ Behind These Bars: Dedication of the jail cell where Min spent nine months in solitary confinement fighting for justice for all Americans. While these bars could not confine Min’s spirit\, the arduous journey of the cell from the Multnomah County Courthouse to its permanent resting place at the Japanese American Museum of Oregon in Portland symbolizes Min’s life work and how this spirit of an extraordinary activist was strengthened rather than diminished by confinement. Min’s determination and faith in our Constitution will be illustrated by the reading of a few poems written behind these bars. \nHosted by: Minoru Yasui Legacy Project in collaboration with the Japanese American Museum of Oregon (JAMO). \nRegister to attend the in-person program or to stream online.

SUMMARY:The Making of American Whiteness
DESCRIPTION:The Making of American Whiteness\nPresented by Dr. Carmen P. Thompson\, in conversation with Dr. Darrell Millner\nThursday\, April 6\, 2023\, at 5:30pm\nAt the Oregon Historical Society\, Portland\nFree and open to the public \nRegister Here \nThe Making of American Whiteness: The Formation of Race in Seventeenth-Century Virginia changes the narrative about the origins of race and Whiteness in America. With an exhaustive range of archival documents\, Carmen P. Thompson demonstrates not only that Whiteness predates European expansion to the Americas — as evidenced by European participation in the transatlantic slave trade since the fifteenth century — but\, more importantly\, that Whiteness was the principal dynamic in the settlement of Virginia\, the first colony in what would become the United States of America. Just as the system of White supremacy was the principal order that fueled the transatlantic slave trade\, it was likewise the framework that drove the organization of civil society in Virginia\, including the organization and structure of the colony’s laws; its social\, political\, and economic policies; and its system of governance. This book shows what Whiteness looked like in everyday life in the early seventeenth century\, finding it eerily predictive to Whiteness today. \nDoors will open at 5:30pm\, and a short program will begin at 6pm. Books will be available for purchase and signing by the author through the OHS Museum Store\, and light refreshments will be served. Learn More
