SUMMARY:Take the Sworn-Again America Oath
DESCRIPTION:When immigrants become American citizens\, they learn the history and the civic scripture of our nation. They take a test and come together to take an oath. We got to thinking… what would it look like for all of us to take an oath? To become a Sworn-Again American? We’ve put together an oath for all Americans—whether you’ve just arrived or your family has been here since time immemorial.

SUMMARY:Tell Me What Democracy Looks Like
DESCRIPTION:Taking a cue from the popular protest call-and-response—”Show me what democracy looks like! This is what democracy looks like!”—this site explores what democracy looks like from the perspectives of five organizers working in today’s undocumented movement. Through their stories\, these organizers invite us to look beyond the headlines and the issues often associated with undocumented immigrants\, from DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) to the DREAMers. In the process\, they stretch our imagination by offering fresh approaches to familiar topics such as community\, citizenship\, belonging\, and even identity itself.

SUMMARY:No-No Boy
DESCRIPTION:No-No Boy tells the story of Ichiro Yamada\, a fictional version of the real-life “no-no boys.” Yamada answered “no” twice in a compulsory government questionnaire as to whether he would serve in the armed forces and swear loyalty to the United States. Unwilling to pledge himself to the country that interned him and his family\, Ichiro earns two years in prison and the hostility of his family and community when he returns home to Seattle. As Ozeki writes\, Ichiro’s “obsessive\, tormented” voice subverts Japanese postwar “model-minority” stereotypes\, showing a fractured community and one man’s “threnody of guilt\, rage\, and blame as he tries to negotiate his reentry into a shattered world.”
