JANM is proud to announce that George Takei and Brad Takei have pledged to gift their estate, currently valued at over $21 million, to the Museum. This future gift ensures that the Takeis’ passion for JANM will continue to endure for years to come.

Just heard from a source that ~100 ice/cbp guys are in little Tokyo. Then saw this. JANM has detailed and haunting exhibits on Japanese interment. This is particularly ghoulish.
Piece of shit ICE fascists are swarming Little Tokyo. Posted up outside the Japanese American Museum threatening people with internment. Impossible to overstate how disgusting these people are.

Not surprised about JANM.
One of the things that really moved me back in the day was when I went to my first Nisei Week and there was a kiosk full of Japanese American people who had received reparations from USA fighting for reparations for descendants of the enslaved.

Today it was neat to see this in Little Tokyo station.

Happy New Year of the Snake! 🐍 Help me honor those who, like me, were affected by WWII Japanese American incarceration by supporting The Ireicho Project and JANM this January. Donate just $1 to help bring the Ireicho to more cities and ensure every name is stamped.

My grandpa Dr. Harry Abe, veteran of the segregated 442 combat unit, helped found this museum!
He wanted future gens to learn from the history of the concentration camps and build an inclusive future. Proud to see JANM uphold those values and, like him, have the courage to oppose fascists 👊🏼

Ich möchte Euch etwas zeigen!

Seit ein paar Jahren bin ich online in salafistischen bis jihadistischen Gefilden unterwegs. Vor allem auf Tiktok. Seither habe ich unzählige Eindrücke gesammelt. Und aus diesen Beobachtungen lassen sich spannende Trends unter Jugendlichen ableiten. Ein Thread 🧵 / 1

When I say I'm upset about this, it is a gross understatement.

I knew it was JANM in a single photo before the news caught up to that being important because that plaza is part of my life, heritage, and deep roots as a Los Angelean Nikkei.

I love you JANM.

I love you as family.

how do I start an anti-campaign? is that a thing? can I anti-campaign them?

Like don't give them money, instead come give money to JANM or Japanese tsunami relief or something if you like Japanese culture so much.

furiously tapping the sign again

you cannot commodify and fetishize Japanese culture without recognizing the baggage and history that comes behind it, and then put it onto a D&D supplement

donate to JANM instead, support Japanese and Japanese American creators, do better
And while we’re on the topic!! I’m tired of these white people releasing things that are Studio Ghibli-inspired!!

“Oh but it’s not that deep!”

If all you take away from Studio Ghibli movies are the “peaceful and whimsical” aesthetics, I IMPLORE you to watch again

"The past is never dead. It's not even past."

On the 107th anniversary of Fred Korematsu's birth, Faulkner's words seem more apt than ever. Visit korematsuinstitute.org for more, or catch George Takei’s brilliant play “Allegiance.” 5/5

Literally right next to JANM ☹️
It does not escape me that this area is in Little Tokyo, the neighborhood and home of another community that's been rounded up and locked away by the government without due process before.
LAPD sweeping people out of the MOCA parking lot- I’ll follow up, I believe that’s private property?

Mural says “who is beyond the law? Who is bought and sold? Who is free to choose…” etc.
