About This Item
New York: Random House, 1984. 259 pages. Illustrated. Foxing around page edges. From the dust jacket: "Over 115,000 Japanese American civilians who lived on the West Coast at the outbreak of World War II were rounded up and sent to desolate "relocation" camps where most spent the duration of the war. Guilt by racial association was fanned into hysteria by California agriculture and labor groups, the Hearst press, and the U.S. Army, and ratified by men like Earl Warren, Walter Lippmann, and Franklin D. Roosevelt. The Japanese community was portrayed as a racial nest of spies and saboteurs. Yet not one Japanese American was ever brought to trial for disloyal activities; none was ever changed with any crime--except being ethnic Japanese..." Thirty Japanese-Americans victimized by Roosevelt's racist and unconstitutional (such as outlawed by the 14th Amendment) program report their own personal experiences in the ordeal.. 1st Ed.. Hard Cover. Fair to Good/Good. American Concentration Camps.
