\u201cResilience in One Chicago Family\u201d event was spearheaded by Japanese American Service Committee (JASC). Chicago Japanese American Council (CJAC), Japanese American Citizens League \u2013 Chicago Chapter (JACL), Chicago Japanese American Historical Society and the Japanese Mutual Aid Society of Chicago were also among several organizations co-hosting the event.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cResilience in One Chicago Family\u201d centered around Matsumoto\u2019s grandparents\u2019 poetry, which explored their forced relocation from Los Angeles to a detention center at Heart Mountain, Wyoming, and their eventual resettlement in Chicago after World War II.<\/p>\n<p>The Day of Remembrance speakers highlighted lessons from Matsumoto\u2019s grandparents\u2019 poetry, looking at themes of hope and resilience in their writing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLabels are powerful and can be insidious,\u201d said Eri F. Yasuhara, a Japanese literature scholar. \u201c[\u2018Tekikokujin,\u2019 or \u2018enemy alien\u2019] had an enormous effect on [Matsumoto\u2019s grandparents\u2019] lives because it was one of the justifications used for their incarceration.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Japanese instructor and editor Mariko Aratani said the poetry form Matsumoto\u2019s grandparents wrote in, tanka, allows for deep personal expression and holds an important place in Japanese culture.<\/p>\n<p>Matsumoto\u2019s grandparents\u2019 tanka poetry, Aratani said, was an outlet for them to document their emotions amid the harsh desolation of incarceration camps.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhile being incarcerated in the camp, stripped of their freedom and facing uncertainty, they turned to tanka to express their emotions and preserve their cultural identity,\u201d Aratani said. \u201cIn the barren environment\u2026they found solace in 31 syllables that had shaped their lives.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jennifer Trautvetter, the event\u2019s lead organizer and JASC\u2019s program and special events manager, said the Day of Remembrance is a necessary time for people to learn more about Japanese American incarceration and the history of Japanese American communities here in Chicago.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<\/div> \n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div> \n\n\t<div  class=\"vc_col-sm-2 vc_hidden-sm vc_hidden-xs wpb_column column_container vc_column_container col no-extra-padding inherit_tablet inherit_phone \"  data-padding-pos=\"all\" data-has-bg-color=\"false\" data-bg-color=\"\" data-bg-opacity=\"1\" data-animation=\"\" data-delay=\"0\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"vc_column-inner\" >\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div> \n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div> \n<\/div><\/div>\n\t\t<div id=\"fws_69d01a680c3c6\"  data-column-margin=\"default\" data-midnight=\"dark\"  class=\"wpb_row vc_row-fluid vc_row\"  style=\"padding-top: 0px;

The act was the legal basis for Executive Order 9066 and the incarceration of Japanese Americans.<\/p>\n<p>Since taking office, Trump has made immigration and <a href=\"https:\/\/borderlessmag.org\/2025\/01\/18\/trump-deportations-could-start-in-chicago-tuesday-reports-say\/\">deportation of people without legal status a top priority<\/a>. His administration is working to ramp up Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids and arrests, detaining immigrants at Guantanamo Bay\u2019s detention facility, building immigrant detention facilities on military bases, and contracting with a private prison company to detain immigrant families.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo one should be facing what is happening now, regardless of time, or people, or who it is,\u201d Ozaki said. \u201cEspecially from their government.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In the 1940s, Ozaki\u2019s grandfather and family were moved to a relocation center at Santa Anita Racetrack in California. In conversations with Ozaki, her grandfather said the U.S. government \u201ctreated the animals better than they treated him\u201d while detained at the racetrack.<\/p>\n<p>Ozaki\u2019s grandfather, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chicagotribune.com\/2015\/10\/11\/sam-ozaki-world-war-ii-veteran-and-cps-principal-dies-at-90\/\">the first Asian American principal in Chicago Public Schools, according to the Chicago Tribune<\/a>, passed away in 2015.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"lessons-of-healing-and-resilience\">Lessons of Healing and Resilience<\/h2>\n<p>CJAC President Bob Hashimoto said for great-grandparents and grandparents who lived in or were direct descendants of those who were incarcerated, speaking about their experiences can be difficult.<\/p>\n<p>Hashimoto, who is Sansei, or third-generation Japanese American, said that when he was younger, he was told not to learn Japanese and to distance himself from his culture to be more accepted.<\/p>\n<p>But now, Hashimoto said, many younger generations of Japanese Americans are finding ways to learn more about their history and grandparents\u2019 experiences.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe fourth generation [Yonsei] is asking more about: \u2018How come we don&#8217;t know more about our heritage?\u2019\u201d Hashimoto said. \u201cThey\u2019re starting to gravitate back towards asking those questions and looking into their grandparents and how all this happened.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For the organizers of the event, speaking about Japanese American history served as an important reminder of the need to advocate for other immigrants and marginalized communities whose civil rights are under attack today.<\/p>\n<p>But central to the Day of Remembrance, too, was thinking about how the Matsumotos and thousands of other Japanese Americans built lives for themselves and future generations despite their challenges and hardships.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn this current time of so many uncertainties, perhaps we can find strength in and learn from our forebearer\u2019s resilience against all odds,\u201d said Kyoko Miyabe, a Japanese American translator and artist and the final speaker at the Day of Remembrance event.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c[They endured] hardships through acts of creation, whether through poetry, agriculture or horticulture, never losing hope for future possibilities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><i>Katrina Pham is Borderless Magazine\u2019s audience engagement reporter.
