Exhibit Documents the Tule Lake Incarceration Camp of WWII
The Imprisoned at Home exhibition immerses visitors in the Incarceration Camps of WWII. A few short weeks after the bombing of Pearl Harbor, 120,000 Japanese and Americans of Japanese descent were forcibly taken from their homes to “War Relocation Centers” from California to Arkansas. Opening with a powerful panel of anti-Japanese propaganda posters, the exhibition brings visitors into the war-time hysteria that led to the signing of Executive Order 9066 by FDR...click here to learn more.
