Description
An account of the resource
Yenokida discusses his time after his imprisonment, working in Denver, farming and shipping vegetables with his brother. Later, they would head back to Cortez to visit their mother and start their own farm, which ended up having over 3,000 acres of farmland, until President Carter decided to have an embargo on Russia, which ended up causing the farm to close. During that time, his brother would drive up to Tule Lake Concentration Camp to help those who did not have anywhere else to go and gave them jobs on the farm. Next, Yenokida discusses the redress and reparations that were given to each family and what it means to him. Finally, he speaks about the legacy of those that went to the camps, served in the war, or took a stand against the government.

Description
An account of the resource
Yenokida begins his trial in Denver, submitting paperwork showing that Japanese Americans were not being given their Constitutional Rights, however, the judge did not agree and he was sentenced to Tuscon Federal Work Camp for 1 year. He and the other Japanese Americans were handcuffed and leg shackled and sent down to Tuscon, which left a shameful imprint on Yenokida's mind for the rest of his life. While there, his two brothers also were sentenced to the same work camp and they continued on doing their work for a year and decided to head back to Ameche to see their mother. However, upon arrival, they found they were not allowed back and instead had to sneak into the camps late at night. After nearly being caught one night, they headed back to Denver to start working but were taken advantage of by others that had been living in the work camps with them.

After the war, Kenichi Muranaga gets married in 1946 and works serval jobs before starting his laundromat business in 1963. Kenichi and Yoshiko have one son, four grandchildren, and two great-grandchildren.
Kenichi is proud of his family, especially of his brother Kiyoshi. Kenichi says Kiyoshi is a true soldier. Anyone who knows Kiyoshi would say the same. He is an outstanding soldier who goes beyond the call of duty.
Kenichi recalls his family receiving a letter that Kiyoshi's Department of the Army Civilian Award (DAC) is upgraded to the Medal of Honor. The whole Muranaga family travels to Washington DC for the ceremony.
On the day of the ceremony, there are at least 20 recipients of the Medal of Honor. Kenichi discusses the contribution of the Nisei legacy and what it means to be in a segregated unit.
Although the government gives reparations, Kenichi shares his sentiments on the issue.

Description
An account of the resource
Fujikawa talks more about growing up in Los Angeles, specifically about the time that he spent in the Japanese language school. In regular school, he would take an interest in sciences, such as botany and would face some discrimination throughout his time there. Next, he talks about being at the produce market working when he heard of the attacks on Pearl Harbor and the signing of the executive order 9066 that followed. He would be forced to pack up his belongings and head to Santa Anita racetrack before taking a train to Granada (Amache) Concentration Camp in Colorado. In order to escape the camps, he decided to join the Army, and would head to Fort Snelling in Minnesota to begin his Military Intelligence Service Language courses.
