2020 Asian Pacific American Heritage Month Event

The Asian Affinity Group at White & Case is pleased to invite you to a virtual screening of Alternative Facts: The Lies of Executive Order 9066 and panel discussion. All are welcome to attend.

The documentary tells the untold story of false information and political influence, which led to the World War II incarceration of Japanese Americans and the Supreme Court case of Korematsu. The documentary also examines the parallels to the targeting of minority groups today and similar attempts to abuse the powers of government.

The documentary will be available for advance viewing beginning Sunday, May 17 through Sunday, May 24 via a White & Case streaming link to be distributed in a subsequent email.

Following a screening of the documentary, our distinguished panelists will share reflections on the documentary.
