In 1942, at the age of 23, Korematsu refused to\u00a0go to the government\u2019s incarceration camps for Japanese Americans. After he was arrested and convicted of defying the\u00a0government\u2019s order, he appealed his case all the way to the Supreme Court. In 1944, the Supreme Court ruled against him,\u00a0arguing that the incarceration was justified due to military necessity.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">In honor of Fred Korematsu day, we are holding a special screening of the documentary &#8220;Of Civil Rights and Wrongs&#8221; followed\u00a0by reflections by a group of panelists, including a former internee of the Japanese internment camps.\u00a0Sponsored by Asian Americans Advancing Justice-Chicago, CAIR-Chicago, National Lawyers Guild-Chicago TUPOCC,\u00a0Japanese American Citizens League, and Chicago-Kent chapters of the National Lawyers Guild, Asian Pacific American Law\u00a0Students Association, Muslim Law Students Association, Immigration Law Society, and American Constitution Society.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fred Korematsu Day Film Screening &amp; Discussion: &#8220;Of Civil Rights and Wrongs\u201d Tuesday, February 9 from 12:00-1:30pm Chicago-Kent College of Law 565 W.
