Day of Remembrance Listening and Discussion Event

In Buddhism, we strive to see the world with Right View, seeing things as they are, not how we want to see them or want others to see them. Join us as we delve into the Burn Order podcast, “how an executive order authorizing the roundup of innocent Americans came to be”, with a chance to learn each others’ perspectives (with awareness of the lenses we all have as humans) and increase awareness of the causes and conditions that have brought us where we are today.

In the weeks leading up to Day of Remembrance, we invite our community to engage with a powerful story of history, resistance, and truth.

The Japanese American Resource Center of Colorado (JARCC), Simpson United Methodist Church, Tri-State/Denver Buddhist Temple, and Mile High JACL invite you to listen to Rachel Maddow Presents: Burn Order, a six-episode podcast that explores the U.S. government’s decision to incarcerate Japanese Americans during World War II, the forces behind it, the resistance that challenged it, and efforts to erase this history.
