  10. Fred Korematsu challenged Executive Order 9066 that forcefully interned 120,000 Japanese Americans during WWII, including members of my family. His story shines a light on this dark time and serves as a reminder of the power of a single person demanding justice.

    Trump’s lawyers argued he has a right to abuse his power as much as he wants, and Congress can do nothing about it. Sounds familiar: Trump: “I have an Article 2, where I have the right to do whatever I want as president.” Congress can do something: hold a fair trial.

  20. On , we remember the six million Jews and others who were brutally murdered at the hands of the Nazis. We have a responsibility to combat anti-Semitism and bigotry and to ensure that something as horrible as the Holocaust is never repeated.
