Beyond Baroque, in coordination with the Venice Japanese American Memorial Monument Committee, will present on Saturday, May 26, from 2 to 4 p.m. an afternoon of music and poetry, a documentary film, and a panel discussion on the forced removal and incarceration of persons of Japanese ancestry during World War II.

The program will begin with a 15-minute performance of Deon Nielson Price’s composition for mixed media, “Behind Barbed Wire.” Pianist Mary Au and saxophonist Chika Inouye will perform as well as read haiku in English translation, written by incarcerees of assembly centers and the American concentration camps.

Behind the musicians will be silent video images of life for Japanese Americans imprisoned behind barbed wire, bookended by footage of Imperial Japan’s attack on Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7, 1941 and of the U.S. atomic bombing of Hiroshima on Aug. 6, 1945, symbols of the beginning and the end of World War II for the U.S.

Next, a new film, “And Then They Came For Us,” will be screened. Award-winning filmmaker Abby Ginzburg and her co-director and editor Ken Schneider produced this 50-minute documentary, which features interviews with former internees, including actor and activist George Takei.

Takei and his family first faced imprisonment at the War Relocation Authority camp in Rohwer, Ark. After his parents declined to answer Questions 27 and 28 on the “loyalty questionnaire” in the affirmative, however, the Takeis were sent to what became the Tule Lake Segregation Center for potentially dangerously disloyal persons of Japanese ancestry. Takei was seven years old at the time.

In his op-ed piece published in The New York Times?on April 28, 2017, Takei wrote, “If this seems a practice only of years long past, consider that today we need merely replace ‘Japanese Americans’ with ‘Muslims’ for the parallels to emerge. Once again, we are told by our government that a blanket ban is needed. So brazen is this same troubling logic that a Trump surrogate even?cited Japanese American internment?as a precedent for the Muslim ban. Both rely upon the presupposition of guilt, one by race, the other by religion. Most chilling of all, both arise out of government policy and action.”

Indeed, the film posits that the current administration in Washington, D.C. could perpetrate another constitutional violation under the guise of national security, this time against Muslims. The film’s title derives from the famous anti-Nazi warning by German Lutheran pastor Martin Neimoller, based on various speeches and references he made after the beginning of the Holocaust:

First they came for the Communists, and I did not speak out

Because I was not a Communist

Then they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out

Because I was not a Socialist

Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out

Because I was not a trade unionist

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out

Because I was not a Jew

Then they came for me, and there was no one left

To speak out for me.

The Civil Liberties Act of 1988, signed 30 years ago by President Ronald Reagan, attributed the government’s actions following Executive Order 9066 to “race prejudice, war hysteria, and a failure of political leadership” as opposed to legitimate security reasons.

Finally, the afternoon will end with a panel discussion with audience participation encouraged, on the lessons of the Japanese American internment and the dangerously parallel times we live in today. The Venice Japanese American Memorial Monument explicitly states, engraved on solid granite:

“May this Venice Japanese American Memorial Monument remind us to be forever vigilant about defending our constitutional rights. The powers of government must never again perpetrate an injustice against any group based solely on ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, race, or religion.”

For reservations, contact Phyllis Hayashibara at [email protected] or call (310) 390-1576. General admission $10 general, $6 for students, seniors, and children, free for Beyond Baroque members. Seating will be limited to 100 persons in the intimate Beyond Baroque theater.
