Abstract

Yosh Nakagawa, Herb Tsuchiya, and Lilly Kodama tell stories of their experiences when they were interned at Camp Minidoka in Idaho during World War II.

The Seeking Justice Project focuses on the events and aftermath of the forced internment of thousands of Japanese Americans during World War II. Many of the Japanese Americans who lived in the Northwest were forced to leave behind homes, businesses, and property and were relocated to Camp Minidoka, an internment camp near Twin Falls, Idaho.
