Event held at the Japanese American Cultural and Community Center (JACCC). Text on poster reads: This national day of protest marks one year since the Civil Liberties Act granting redress and reparations was signed into law by President Reagan, yet Congress has committed no money. Join us in representing the 2000 camp survivors who have died since the signing of that law last August. Justice Delayed is Justice Denied!
