Imprisoned by the US Government during WWII
Manzanar, Block 24, Barracks 2, Unit 4

As a US-born Japanese, Ted Tanaka was imprisoned with 120,000 others based solely on nationality, no due process of law.
He personally describes photos of his incarcerated 3-1/2 years in a US crude camp.
This is relevant today with our current government threats against immigrants and their US-born families.
