It’s August 31st. This day in 1942, a judge upholds the arrest of a Japanese-American man named Fred Korematsu.
Jody, Niki, and Kellie discuss how Korematsu tried to resist the detention of Japanese-Americans in the wake of Pearl Harbor, and the legal battles that broke out after the Roosevelt administration moved hundreds of thousands of people to concentration camps along the west coast.
