Contact Us On December 7, 1941, Pearl Harbor was bombed by the
Japanese. Widespread anger and chaos ensued. The U.S. government
immediately declared war upon Japan marking the entrance of the
U.S. into World War II. This also marked the beginning of the
incarceration of Japanese-Americans. A truly unjustified action,
the internment of the Japanese is one example of how unsolved
discrimination can bring injustice to U.S. citizens. This
website honors the Japanese-Americans who went through the
experience and lived to tell. History is meant to be passed on
and used to keep from making the same mistakes. 2004 Gold Award
