Franklin Delano Rooseveltâs Executive Order 9066 authorized the incarceration of people of Japanese ancestry into United States concentration camps during World War II. Both sides of my family â and entire Seattle community â were rounded up. âWhat kind of ancestors do we want to be?â is a piece that asks Japanese Americans to use their moral imperative in the fight for equity and for the removal of oppressive systems. It is a call to all of us to connect these stories to the struggles our Black, Brown, and Indigenous siblings continue to face today amidst a global pandemic, within the prison industrial complex, and simply out in the world within our broken system. None of us are free until all of us are free.
