Description
A passionate letter from Clifford Uyeda to Aiko HerzigYoshinaga about the Japanese American Citizens League (JACL) refusing to take a position on people who were arrested because of an allegation that they were involved with the Palestinian Liberation Organization. Uyeda argues that these people are being targeted for incarceration merely because of their ethnicity and that it is important for the JACL to take a stand against government actions that deprive people of liberty based on their race.
