I posted a link to this site earlier in the seminar forum and wanted to do a full review of it in this section.
http://korematsuinstitute.org/

This page is the Korematsu Institute, and it addresses the personal history and legacy of Fred Korematsu. A Japanese -American living in California during World War II, Korematsu lost his job due to his ethnicity and then was subject to the Evacuation Order requiring the removal of people of Japanese heritage from the West Coast. He, however, defied the order -- even undergoing minor plastic surgery and using an assumed name in order to stay free. His case famously went to the Supreme Court, which ruled that the order was justified. Much later, researchers discovered that the Justice Department had suppressed documents showing that the government knew Japanese Americans did not in fact pose a threat. Korematsu fought to have his conviction overturned, then pushed for the government to compensate interned Japanese-Americans and their descendants.

The website includes a thorough biography, including a large amount of information on the Supreme Court case. There are links, videos, and documents in addition to the full curriculum. While the website focuses on Korematsu Day (January 30), you could easily use the materials at whatever point in the year your class covers World War II. Lesson material includes age-appropriate units for K-12. It could easily be tailored to fit into a small portion of a class period or expanded to cover multiple meetings. One important page talks about the power of language and advocates for using terms such as "American concentration camp" rather than the warmer-sounding "internment/assembly/relocation camp."

The website explains that Korematsu's story is included in the permanent collection of the Japanese American National Museum downtown, so that field trip would be a logical extension.

One of Korematsu's quotes is "Don't be afraid to speak up," which also ties into our anti-bullying lessons.

The one issue I had with the site was that some sections of the curriculum did not download easily. Most did, but the one most relevant to me froze each time I tried to download it. In the end, I requested that the curriculum be sent to me in a hard copy.
