Description
Report compiled by Lillian Baker of "facts" concerning the War Relocation Authority and the incarceration of Japanese Americans at the beginning of U.S. involvement in World War II. Baker focuses on the use of the term, "concentration camp" and lays out reasoning for the elimination of its use in relation to Japanese American incarceration camps.
The Japanese American Relocation Collection is composed of ephemera related to the relocation program during World War II. Items include the official government report of Manzanar Relocation Center, a photo album, post-war activism materials related to preserving and remembering the camps, various clippings, and documents. The strength of this collection is found in its many perspectives on the controversial relocation program and how it has been presented since World War II.
