Collection of Documents Related to the Incarceration of Japanese Americans at Tule Lake Relocation Center, 1941-1945 (inclusive)

1.75 linear feet and 1 box
Abstract:

Most of the materials in this collection relate to a 1943 loyalty questionnaire and the resulting segregation at Tule Lake of those labeled as "disloyal," which led to thousands of incarcerated Japanese Americans deciding to renounce their U.S. citizenship and apply for repatriation to Japan. Materials document resistance efforts by organized groups, such as Sokuji Kikoku Hoshi-dan, as well as individual acts of resistance by incarcerees.
