Mitsuye Endo  1920-2006

 

An American woman of Japanese descent, Mitsuye Endo was unjustly incarcerated during World War II in concentration camps sponsored by the War Relocation Authority.  Endo filed a writ of habeas corpus that ultimately led to a United States Supreme Court ruling that the U.S. government could not continue to detain a citizen who was "concededly loyal" to the United States.  Two weeks after the Supreme Court’s Endo decision, president Roosevelt officially ended west coast exclusion.

 

Yellow-billed Magpie populations have declined by an estimated 2.9% per year between 1968 and 2015, resulting in a cumulative decline of 76% during that period.
