Summary
This powerful and haunting account of the Japanese American internment raises issues about ethnicity in America today. Like the 120,000 other Japanese Americans who lived on the West Coast during the outbreak of World War II, the close-knit Okamoto family was sent to concentration camps for over three years without due process, simply because they resembled the foreign enemy who attacked Pearl Harbor.
