Other Films About Japanese Internment


This film portrays a moment in American History that can never be forgotten. It reminds us of how easily racism comes about and that hatred and oppression and greed are components in the most civil societies (that would be us).

That said, I am glad there are films that remind us of our ugly sides ... as they remind us that it is our job to be better.

The following lists movies that addresses the interment of Japanese peoples here in the US in the early 1940's. Please add if you can!
