- **Event Description**: Join Great Leap and the Manzanar Baseball Project for the Grand Opening Doubleheader exhibition games on October 18. Rsvp for limited seats.About this EventManzanar National Historic Site was the first of ten major Japanese American internment camps constructed in the early months of 1942. Located in the Owens Valley 225 miles north of Los Angeles, Manzanar held over 10,000 Japanese American people. Throughout the ten camps over 120,000 people, most of them American citizens, were imprisoned without due process of law in the largest mass incarceration in United States history.Wartime incarceration devastated Japanese American communities, but one aspect of pre-war life they were able to hang on to was baseball. Even through incarceration their passion for the game remained strong. The National Pastime took on powerful symbolic meaning, and the baseball diamond became a sacred space to enact a quintessential American ritual.--Today, Great Leap and the Manzanar Baseball Project have taken on the sizeable task of restoring the baseball field at Manzanar. Through its historical re-enactment doubleheader played on Manzanar's lovingly restored ballfield, the Manzanar Baseball Project honors Japanese Americans who found a way to play the game they loved in spite of injustice.This project is a tribute to the spirit and determination of the Japanese American community, the power of baseball to uplift and unite people, and the importance of safeguarding the rights and principles enshrined in our Constitution.--Interested in volunteering?
