Description
Newsletter from June Kizu, Co-chairperson, and David Monkawa, Co-Chairperson, of the National Coalition for Redress/Reparations (NCRR), to members and friends regarding a racist term used in a public commercial in the Southern California area. Also included is a schedule of activities for the Sixteenth annual Manzanar pilgrimage, and a document written for the National Coalition for Redress/Reparations from Jim Matsuoka discussing reparations and citizenship. Handwritten notes are on the back of the schedule of activities for the Manzanar pilgrimage. The Jim Matsuoka Nikkei for Civil Rights and Redress Collection includes brochures, meeting notes and agendas, publications, booklets, and other material related to the Nikkei for Civil Rights and Redress (NCRR), formally known as the National Coalition for Redress/Reparations. The National Coalition for Redress/Reparations was officially formed on July 12, 1980, and included members of the Los Angeles Community Coalition for Redress/Reparations (LACCRR), Japanese Community Progressive Alliance (JCPA), Tule Lake Committee, Nihonmachi Outreach Committee, the Asian/Pacific Student Union, and other members of the community. The material was collected by Jim Matsuoka, a founding member of the organization. Matsuoka also served on the board and was the treasurer. In addition to the NCRR material, the collection also contains event flyers and Day of Remembrance material. For issues of the Nikkei for Civil Rights and Redress newsletter "Banner" published after 2007, visit the NCRR website at https://ncrr-la.org/.
