图书描述

This book relays the bittersweet, untold stories of Japanese-American military resisters who sacrificed their lives for the well-being of their families and friends.After the bombings of Pearl Harbor, the onset of rampant racism and distrust towards "all things alien" residing on American soil permeated the air. Persons of Japanese ancestry were the frequent victims of racist acts and culturally-biased governmental loyalty investigations and questionnaires. The prospect of reporting to active duty for a country that had imprisoned fellow Japanese-American families and friends seemed trivial to resisters of injustice and racism. On the other hand, loyal Japanese-Americans saw it as an opportunity to display their solidarity to the United States.The "conscientious" resisters who questioned the actions of the government were met with a backlash of loyal Japanese-Americans. The history of the Japanese-Americans in World War II does not record the stories of these resistors, nor does it mention the War Department Special Organisation to which many of them were transferred or those who were tried and sentenced by military courts to long-term prison terms. The 200 conscientious military resisters felt betrayed by the government and viewed the decision to imprison Japanese-Americans as an immoral acquiescence to west coast racism.For the first time, the resisters' story is told in vivid detail. The author documents their stories, from those who acted as individuals to those who were part of a collective opposition. She does not abandon the narrative, however, with the end of WWII. She follows many of the resisters into their post war years, assessing the ramifications of their actions on their lives as individuals and within the broader context of the Japanese-American community as well, noting that most were eventually re-embraced by their community, while forgotten to scholars and students of WWII.
