Hidden Internment: The Art Shibayama Story reveals the lesser-know history of the Japanese Latin American internment through the life story of Art Shibayama, who was taken from Peru on March 22, 1944 and interned in a Department of Justice camp in Crystal City, Texas. At age 13, Art was just one of over 2,000 Latin Americans who were forcibly uprooted and interned. Despite his incarceration, Art was denied the redress that had been provided to Japanese Americans. After years of struggle, Art fought for reparations and a full disclosure of this human rights violation. RT: 26:40 mins.
