Minidoka: An American Concentration Camp

On February 19, 1942, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed Executive Order 9066, authorizing armed forces to remove citizens and non-citizens from "military areas".

The result was the dislocation and imprisonment of 120,000 Japanese American citizens in the U.S.  In Minidoka: An American Concentration Camp, Teresa Tamura documents one such camp, the Minidoka War Relocation Center in Jerome county, Idaho.  Her striking black and white photography and essays documents artifacts made in the camp as well as the storries of its survivors, illuminating the historical and social significance of Minidoka.
