📖 Description
The earliest 100-Year (ca1850~1945) history of Japanese immigrants and their sons and daughters in the States. Their struggles against "Yellow Peril" and consequently, in the West-Coast, arose hopeless hysteria right after Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941. FDR's Executive order 9066 took effect and 110,000 Japanese, regardless their nationalities, both Japanese and American, had been rounded up and interned into ten remote concentration camps. Many of Japanese American boys tried to show their loyalty to the USA, voluntarily joined US Army fought in Europe and the Pacific, sacrificed their lives and eventually gained white Americans recognition. Yet, they still had to struggle for redemption, and finally obtained in 1988, under President Reagan.
