Re: Japanese Internment•“I was born in Hawaii. I worked most of my life
on the West Coast. I have never been to Japan. We would have done anything to show our loyalty. All we wanted to do was to be left alone on the coast. . . . My wife and I lost $10,000 in that evacuation. She had a beauty parlor and had to give that up. I had a good position worked up as a gardener, and was taken away from that. We had a little home and that’s gone now. . . .” – anonymous “older Nisei”, 1943 (Manzanar)
