Resolution Adopted by the CCAR
JAPANESE-AMERICANS
Digests of resolutions adopted by the
Central Conference of American Rabbis
between 1889 and 1974
1. See Minority Rights ( 1935, p. 82).
2. We plead for justice to the Japanese-Americans, many of whom have
distinguished
themselves on the field of battle. We deplore their uprooting and the
agitation against
their return in the western states. (1944, p. 96)
3. While we deplore the violence greeting Americans of Japanese ancestry
returning
to the Pacific coast, we applaud the action of the Los Angeles Post of the
American
Legion which passed resolutions urging their comrades to protect the full
rights
of Japanese. (1945, p.125)
