Remembering the Civil Liberties Act of 1988

*Correction: The previous Reparations Sunday flyer included a photo of Japanese Latin Americans seeking redress. Because the redress provided through the Civil Liberties Act of 1988 excluded Japanese Latin Americans who had been interned by the U.S., the photo was inappropriate for a celebration of the CLA. We apologize for the mistake and the hurt and confusion it caused. The flyer has been corrected.
