SUMMARY:LOS ANGELES—Virtual Discussion: The People’s Recorder: New Deal Arts & California Stories
DESCRIPTION:LOS ANGELES—The Los Angeles Public Library will host a special discussion around the People Recorder’s podcast\, an exploration of the 1930s Federal Writers’ Project. This virtual conversation will center on the experiences of LA artist Miné Okubo and her family in the Japanese American community during World War II\, when they were forcibly incarcerated in internment camps\, how they survived\, and how Okubo used her art to bear witness in her visual memoir Citizen 13660\, which paved the way for a presidential apology and reparations for the injustice.

More + link \nWhen: Tuesday\, September 17\, 5-6 pm \nTo register\, go to the LA Public Library site. \nFrom Spark Media: The People’s Recorder is a series about how history is recorded and the power of being heard. Inspired by the New Deal arts projects\, it explores their legacy\, what they achieved\, and what those artists mean for Americans today. The 10 episodes of Season 1 take listeners on a ride across the country\, centered on struggles and triumphs of people on the frontlines of “holding up a mirror to America”: undercover historians documenting Black life in the Jim-Crow South\, documentarians of Florida’s cultures\, champions of indigenous history in the Midwest\, and avatars of migration and resilience in California. Listen to new episodes every month and bonus material dropping in between.
