Description
In a letter to the Director of California State Parks, Judy M. Tachibana explains why referring to Tule Lake as a "Relocation Camp," obscures and falsifies the reality of the place and the experiences of the people who were forced to live there. She suggests that these places be referred to as concentration camps, and urges Mr. Rhoes to consider changing the Tule Lake plaque accordingly.
Collection of notes, articles, correspondence, photographs, and term papers collected by Yukio Mochizuki, a student at CSU Dominguez Hills, while researching Japanese American incarceration and Japanese Peruvian internment during World War II.
