This week's episode was inspired by a sad anniversary in Seattle and American history. After the bombing of Pearl Harbor, our country committed horrible acts against our own citizens by placing over 100,000 people of Japanese heritage, in internment camps all over the west coast. "On February 19, 1942, President Roosevelt signed Executive Order 9066, authorizing the forced evacuation. Both Seattle Mayor Earl Millikan and Governor Arthur Langlie (1900-1966) declared their support of the removal. " (source: https://www.historylink.org/File/240?mc_cid=8e2cf1caf1&mc_eid=98adb54834) At the time, there were 9,600 Japanese in King County and a day after the bombing, they started to be investigated, arrested, banned from public services, revoked business license and had bank account frozen. These horrible acts are barely a generation away from current Seattleites and I thought it would be fitting to educate myself a little more on what happened and share some of those details with you. This episodes FEATURED BUSINESS OF THE WEEK is inspired by the theme, Maneki. Maneki is a Japanese Restaurant that has been serving Seattle's International District since 1904. They survived this time of exclusion and continue to honor their traditions and rich history in the area. "Ownership of Maneki has changed hands only a few times in its century-long tenure. The longest owners were the Sato family; Tokuji Sato owned Maneki between 1923 and the early 1960s, when he handed ownership over to his daughter, “Shi-chan” Virginia Ichikawa, and her husband Joe. The restaurant is now officially owned by the nonprofit InterIm CDA, an organization dedicated to the preservation of Seattle’s International District."
