CONTEST PROMPT Reflecting on Minoru Yasui’s legacy during the Japanese American redress and reparations movement, create an action plan for a civil rights violation that the United States should redress today (to apologize for, to set right). Redress: [noun] the setting right of what is wrong. [verb] to correct or remedy.
Who can apply for the contest?
Middle school and high school-aged students who reside in Oregon or Washington may apply for this contest.
What is a "Make your own exhibit" contest?
Put yourself into the museum curator's shoes. Think science fair meets the action plan! Create a tri-fold poster board, design a Powerpoint photo exhibit with captions, or a short film (5-6 minutes) to capture your redress plan. We encourage contestants to get creative in how they will address a civil rights violation that our country should redress.
For any further questions please contact the Japanese American Museum of Oregon.
