Description
Bulletin No. 6, titled: Remember Pearl Harbor. Decrying misinformation accusing people of Japanese descent of sabotage during the attack on Pearl Harbor, the document seeks "to aid in combating the malicious stories which still persist concerning sabotage" there. The report includes numerous items from 1942, including newspaper and magazine articles, and columns from the Chicago Daily News, Pacific Citizen, and Christian Century; affidavits, statements, and reports from Fourth Interim Report of the House of Representatives Select Committee Investigating National Defense Migration (Tolan Committee), May, 1942; excerpts from Blake Clark's book 'Remember Pearl Harbor; and "stories of Japanese American heroism and sacrifice for the cause of the United States" on the day of the attack. Many non-governmental groups sought redress for Japanese Americans incarcerated during World War II. This collection contains reports, correspondence, publicity, and other documents issued by the Committee on Resettlement of Japanese Americans, National Japanese American Student Relocation Council, Pacific Coast Committee on American Principles and Fair Play, YMCA, American Friends Service Committee, and Japanese American Citizens League. These groups sought to provide relief and support for incarcerated Japanese Americans.
