On This Day

On this day in 1942, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed Executive Order 9066, authorizing the internment of Japanese Americans during World War II. This dark chapter in American history led to the forced relocation and imprisonment of over 100,000 people, and is a sobering reminder of the impact of wartime fear and prejudice.
