Exhibition Re-Shaping Memory, Owning History: Through the Lens of Japanese Canadian Redress

Filed under Upcoming Events

August 19 – September 21, 2008

To commemorate the 20th anniversary of redress JCNM presents this exhibition of the history of Japanese Canadians. First shown to inaugurate the museum in 2000, this exhibition looks through the lens of redress at the violations of human rights conducted against Canadians of Japanese ancestry under the War Measures Act, between 1941 until 1949. The federal government’s acknowledgement of wrongdoing and compensation on September 22, 1988 redressed the past. Layers of voices, drawn from government documents, newspapers, books, poetry, diaries, letters, and oral histories, together with poignant photographic images and memory-laden artifacts, speak to losses and absences, and of issues of community, identity, representation, and human rights.
