Wikipedia description:
Gordon Kiyoshi Hirabayashi (平林潔, Hirabayashi Kiyoshi; April 23, 1918 – January 2, 2012) was an American sociologist whose principled resistance to the Japanese American internment during World War II included a 1943 Supreme Court challenge decided under the caption Hirabayashi v. United States. His conviction was overturned in 1986. Hirabayashi posthumously received the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2012.
