SUMMARY:Lunchbox Learning with Dr. Vernon Burton
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Dr. Vernon Burton\, Clemson University \nTopic: Justice Deferred: Race and the Supreme Court \nFrom the Cherokee Trail of Tears to Brown v. Board of Education to the dismantling of the Voting Rights Act\, historian Orville Vernon Burton shines a powerful light on the Court’s race record during the short period spanning the 1930s through the early 1970s. Much of the fragility of civil rights in America is due to the Supreme Court\, but as this sweeping history also reminds us\, the justices still have the power to make good on the country’s promise of equal rights for all. \nLunchbox Learning is free for UHM Members and included with general admission for all other guests. \n  \nUpcoming Lunchbox Learning programs: \n\nOctober 13 – Even as We Breathe with Annette Saunooke Clapsaddle\nNovember 10 – War Dogs: Never Below You\, Never Above You\, Always Beside You with Julie Schrock & Chris Willingham\nDecember 15 – Home for the Holidays with the Norman Rockwell Museum\n\n  \n\n  \nLunchbox Learning is generously sponsored by:

SUMMARY:Manzanar: The Wartime Photographs of Ansel Adams
DESCRIPTION:On February 19\, 1942\, following the December 7\, 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor\, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed Executive Order 9066\, a mandate that required all Americans of Japanese ancestry to enter internment camps. The majority of Japanese detained were native-born Americans or legal U.S. citizens. \nThe Manzanar Relocation Center\, located 220 miles northeast of Los Angeles\, was the first of ten camps established to detain 120\,000 individuals of Japanese descent. Located on the eastern shoulder of California’s Sierra Nevada range\, the camp at Manzanar opened in March 1942 and operated through November 1945 as a confinement site for more than 11\,070 Japanese Americans. \n    \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nDuring the camp’s operation\, four leading American photographers – Ansel Adams\, Clem Albers\, Dorothea Lange\, and Toyo Miyatake – documented the physical\, cultural\, and psychological conditions of camp life. Crafted from different angles\, their combined work reveals the complex human responses to internment and its obvious social injustices. \nManzanar: The Wartime Photographs of Ansel Adams consists of fifty photographs taken by famed Western landscape photographer Ansel Adams of the Manzanar Relocation Center between 1943 and 1944. The controversial period in American history is depicted in authentic black and white photographs by the skilled Adams and presents a moment in time when Japanese American citizens were denied their freedom and rights due to their Japanese ancestry. \nAdams presents an intimate look at daily life in Manzanar through portraits and images of daily life. This series is a departure from his usual landscape photography. Concentrating on the internees and their activities\, Adams photographed family life in the barracks; people at work – internees as welders\, farmers\, and garment makers; and recreational activities\, including baseball and volleyball games. \nIn addition to Adams’s work\, the exhibition features photographs by Dorothea Lange and Toyo Miyatake. Miyatake\, a Los Angeles portrait photographer and internee at Manzanar\, fashioned a camera from parts he brought with him in his luggage. Both Adams’s and Miyatake’s photographs present a positive view of those interned at Manzanar. In contrast Lange’s photographs reflect the upheaval of evacuation and the bleak conditions at the camp.
