Fred Toyosaburo Korematsu (30 Januari 1919 – 30 Maret 2005) adalah seorang aktivis hak sipil Amerika Serikat yang menentang penginterniran Jepang Amerika pada Perang Dunia II. Tak lama setelah Angkatan Laut Kekaisaran Jepang meluncurkan serangan Pearl Harbor, Presiden Franklin D. Roosevelt mengeluarkan Executive Order 9066, yang memerintahkan penyingkiran orang-orang berdarah Jepang yang tinggal di Pantai Barat dari rumah-rumah mereka dan penahanan mereka di kamp-kamp penginterniran, namun Korematsu menentang perintah tersebut dan menjadi buronan.
