Description
Text of Lillian Baker's speech to the Freedoms Foundation at Valley Forge, Orange County Chapter general membership luncheon. In the speech, Baker denounces redress and reparations, opposes the use of the term "concentration camp," and her belief that incarceration of Japanese Americans was right.
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.
