Sadly, terrorism in the Middle East (ISIS), Nigeria (Boko Haram), and on the silver screen (American Sniper) dominated the news the past week. But today, we celebrate Fred Korematsu Day. If you don’t know this civil rights hero and first Asian American to have a day named after him in the United States, check out his story on the Korematsu Institute website.
