After the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941, there was an unfounded fear that Japanese Americans would be loyal to Japan. President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed Executive Order 9066, authorizing the military to incarcerate Japanese Americans. The Santa Anita Race Track was designated one such camp, creating the Santa Anita Assembly Center. Thousands of Japanese Americans were forced to live in barracks and horse stables. One man was Ted Fujioka. Ted was 17-years-old when he was forced into Santa Anita and wrote letters to a high school teacher. Decades later, those letters made it back to Ted’s nephew, Darrell Kunitomi, historian for the Los Angeles Times.

I had read up on my Philippines history before I migrated to the USA as a 9-year old.  My first library was the bookcase at my grandmother's house (down the street from my parents') full of my uncles' & aunts' school textbooks.  I even "borrowed" two of them to bring with me to Chicago. I hope my kids, from time to time, watch documentaries on YouTube to learn about th...
