The Northern California Time of Remembrance will be held from 1 to 3 p.m. at the Secretary of State Auditorium 1500 11th St. in Sacramento, Calif. Doors open at noon. Producer Neil Simon will screen “Prisoners and Patriots: The Untold Story of Japanese Internment in Santa Fe.” His film brings to light the stories of the 4,555 Japanese men who were held in a Department of Justice incarceration camp during World War II. Simon will also participate in a Q-and-A-format session. The cost (donation) to attend the event is $15 for adults and $10 for students over 18. Students under 18 are free. This includes admission to the “Uprooted! Japanese Americans During World War II” exhibit in the California Museum. The Florin, Lodi, Placer County and Sacramento chapters of the Japanese American Citizens League will sponsor the event. Free parking is available across the street from the venue.
