By Tule Lake Committee
This book focuses on the Tule Lake Concentration center in California, which was opened as a detention center for Japanese Americans in 1942. In 1943 Tule Lake was designated as "Segregation Center" after a Loyalty Oath was forced upon the interned population of Tule Lake and the other nine concentration camps for Japanese-Americans in World War II. Much of the text of KINENHI is based on interviews conducted in 1978, 1979 and again, for the second printing, at Pilgrimages in 1994 and 1996 - all with former internees of Tule Lake and other camps, as well as on discussions and speeches made at various programs at Tule Lake pilgrimages over the years.
