Hidden History: Japanese Incarceration on Angel Island

Belvedere Tiburon

Angel Island's WWII secret most visitors never learn: historian Grant Din reveals how Japanese immigrants were detained there as "enemy aliens" by the U.S. Army, a story distinct from the better-known War Relocation Authority camps. The talk connects to George Takei's graphic memoir They Called Us Enemy and explores how these policies shaped lives and resonate today.
