Voices Behind Barbed Wire - HIFF Version

Eighty years ago in February 1942, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed Executive Order 9066, which resulted in the establishment of internment camps for people of Japanese ancestry. Relocation centers were stationed throughout the country with several in Hawaiʻi on multiple islands. This film shares untold first-hand accounts of Hawaiʻi State residents and their experiences of being detained during World War II.

I would like to visit JCCH in Honolulu someday. I have written about the education of Japanese American students during WWII, focusing on The National Japanese American Student Relocation Council for my master's degree.
