Enduring Democracy: The Monterey Petition (2019)
Release: January 23
Encouraged by John Steinbeck, a group of women activists confront economic racism against Japanese Americans in 1940s Monterey, California. At a time when the fear of WWII gripped our nation, kitchen table conversations led to a door-to-door petition drive motivating citizens of the Monterey peninsula to welcome back fellow citizens held in concentration camps for 3 years solely due to their Japanese ancestry. Toni Jackson-who worked as an editor for John Steinbeck and was Ed Rickett’s common-law wife-wrote the petition, A Democratic Way of Life for All, in 1945. It stands as the only organized public resistance to the well-funded hate campaign waged against Japanese-Americans as they began the painful return home to suspicious communities. Enduring Democracy: the Monterey Petitions explores the motivations of the wealthy individuals who financed hate campaigns as well as the daring women who spearheaded the carefully thought out response. A twitter war before mobile phones, the battle was fought in the editorial pages of several local newspapers as racists emboldened by Anti-Japanese war propaganda posted full page ads to discourage Japanese Americans from returning to their homes and businesses. Inspired by Mollie Sumida’s letter to the editor written while imprisoned at the camp in Poston, AZ, local residents banded together to get their community to sign Toni Rickett’s petition pledging “the democratic way of life for all.”
