The AjA Project’s Civil Liberties Project is a fellowship program encouraging youth and young adult participants to examine the history of Japanese-American incarceration during WWII and how it parallels their own personal histories as immigrants/refugees. As part of an ongoing program since 2017, this year’s cohort created a large scale pop-up book with augmented reality components. This project will be displayed at the Central Library (1st floor) to coincide with the forced Japanese American relocation on it’s 83rd anniversary. This exhibits sparks dialogue around Executive Order 9066 and its lasting consequences, to the San Diego Community. Participating artists (Civil Liberty fellows) include: Jazmin Barajas, Maya Rosado, Tarrah Aroonsakool, David Zapeda, Lena Hyasat and more. Learn about AJA
