Right to Resist: From 9066 to 2021 Film Series A Japanese American filmmaker finds echoes of his own family's World War II incarceration in post-9/11 arrests of Muslim immigrants and joins the struggle to free Farouk Abdel-Muhti, a Palestinian-born human rights activist. Unwilling to accept that he was a suspect because of his beliefs, Farouk organized a hunger strike and became a symbol of resistance against Homeland Security’s racialized dragnet targeting brown-skinned Americans. Directed by Konrad Aderer / 2011 / 82 mins Curated by Brian Hu of San Diego Asian Film Festival
