 lay by <strong>Jeanne Sakata\n </strong>\n\nstarring <strong>Blake Kushi\n
  </strong>\n<em>Hold These Truths</em> &nbsp\;is based on the true story o
 f Gordon Hirabayashi\, an American sociologist best known for his principl
 ed resistance to the Japanese-American internment during WWII. Jeanne Saka
 ta&rsquo\;s script was inspired by hours of interviews with Mr. Hirabyashi
  and several of his friends from the 1940s.\n\n&ldquo\;Gordon Hirabayashi 
 should be a household name\, like Rosa Parks\,&rdquo\; said CVRep Artistic
  Director\, Ron Celona. &ldquo\;When I saw HOLD THESE TRUTHS several years
  ago\, I knew this was a story that must be told\, and that I would one da
 y bring it to the Coachella Valley\, It was the inspiration for this seaso
 n&rsquo\;s theme of The American Melting Pot\,&rdquo\; Celona explains.\n\
 nIn May 2012\, Gordon Hirabayashi was posthumously awarded our nation&rsqu
 o\;s highest civilian honor\, The Presiential Medal of Freedom.\n\nShow ti
