DESCRIPTION:<em>A Principled Stand: The Story of Hirabayashi v. United Stat
 es</em>\, a collection of memoirs by Gordon Hirabayashi\, James Hirabayash
 i and Lane Ryo Hirabayashi was selected for the upcoming JAMsj Book Club m
 eeting when it meets November 2\, 1:00pm at the Museum.\n\nGordon Hirabaya
 shi was convicted of violating a curfew at the outbreak of WWII. &nbsp\;Hi
 s appeal of this conviction reached the U.S. Supreme Court and Hirabayashi
  stood firm. The rest of his story promises a lively discussion at the Boo
 k Club meeting.\n\nFor the first &nbsp\;time\, the events of the &nbsp\;ca
 se are told in Gordon's own words. The result is a &nbsp\;compelling and i
 ntimate story that reveals what motivated him\, how he endured\, and how h
 is ideals deepened as he fought discrimination and defended his beliefs.\n
 \n<blockquote>"I never look at my case as just my own\, or just as a Japan
 ese-&nbsp\;American case. &nbsp\;It is an&nbsp\;American case\, with princ
 iples that affect the fundamental human rights of all&nbsp\;Americans."\n&
