S Floyd Mori

S Floyd MoriFloyd Mori has been the National Executive Director/CEO of the Japanese American Citizens League (JACL), the nation's oldest and largest Asian American civil rights organization. He was also Director of Public Policy for the JACL and was National Preident. He was previously an educator who has taught economics to college students and has been a California State assemblyman, a mayor, and a businessman. He has spoken many times about Japanese Americans and the Asian American experience. Although he was a young child during the period of World War II, his family lived in Utah, so he was not among those incarcerated. Nevertheless, Floyd has talked with many people who went through the experience and has done research on the subject. This work includes speeches presented and articles written while Floyd was representing the JACL. This is an attempt to tell some of the Japanese American story in order to make people aware of this travesty of justice so that it will never happen again to any other people in the United States of America.
