Henry Sakamoto: 
My name is Henry Sakamoto. I'm a founding member of Oregon Nikkei Endowment. I'm an active volunteer at the ONE site. During World War II, because of my Japanese ancestry, I was incarcerated by the U.S. government, behind barbed-wire fences and under armed military guard. We will get started very soon with the chat.

Hi! I'm Jackie Peterson-Loomis, the curator of the Coming Home exhibition at the Oregon Nikkei Legacy Center. As a Public Historian, retired from Washington State University, I have long been interested in the multiethnic, working class history of Portland, particularly the area called Old Town. I founded the Old Town History Project in 2000 and have been learning from elders like the Nisei narrators in Coming Home ever since!. I look forward to chatting with you.

[Comment From Kate GrayKate Gray: ] 
Have you told your stories in the communities in which you live, and how have your stories changed or affected those communities? (thank you)
Monday January 14, 2013 12:01 Kate Gray
12:02
Henry Sakamoto: 
I've told the stories in our communities and discovered that a large part of our population have not heard about the Constitutional violations during WWII.

Kelly, here's a question for you.

12:02
[Comment From sue armitagesue armitage: ] 
Kelly, I was bothered by one term used in the article. You talked about "oral histories" but I think the better term would be "oral testimony." What I mean is that the individual statements were not part of a longer interview, but specific statements prepared for the exhibit. Isn

12:03
Henry Sakamoto: 
To the extent that it's new information for many people, it can become a matter of deep interest for those who wish to uphold the Constitution of the United States.
Monday January 14, 2013 12:03 Henry Sakamoto
12:03
Kelly House: 
Hi Sue, good thought. I used the term oral history because I think that is more familiar for readers, but I am going to let Jackie elaborate on the topic.
Monday January 14, 2013 12:03 Kelly House
12:04
[Comment From Kate GrayKate Gray: ] 
Mr. Sakamoto, when you did inform people in the communities, what was their response besides surprise?
Monday January 14, 2013 12:04 Kate Gray
12:04
Henry Sakamoto: 
Ms. Gray, part of the response was shock that the U.S. government could treat its citizens so poorly....
Monday January 14, 2013 12:04 Henry Sakamoto
12:05
Henry Sakamoto: 
And part of the response was shocked realization that American textbooks don't detail or mention much of this history.
Monday January 14, 2013 12:05 Henry Sakamoto
12:06
Kelly House: 
Henry, that's interesting. In conversations with me, you've touched on the fact that Japanese Americans who returned from internment felt pressure to remain under the radar, which led them not to share their stories with anyone. Can you explain the inner conflict that pressure to be silent caused?
Monday January 14, 2013 12:06 Kelly House
12:08
Henry Sakamoto: 
Kelly, it's a cultural thing to avoid talking about bad news. So if you did talk about you're digging up old bones. After the process, when I went into internment I was 15 years old. I didn't realize what really was happening to us...
Monday January 14, 2013 12:08 Henry Sakamoto
12:08
jacqueline peterson-loomis: 
Sue, I think you are making an important distinction. In the case of this exhbit, where the subject matter was not well known and where survivors had not shared much of their experiences, I asked several members of the exhibit advisory committee and others in the community whether they would be willing to write about their experiences of coming home, focusing on episodes which were memorable. They agreed and thus was launched a true collaboration between curator and narrator. While the lenght and range of the narratives varied, all of the participants shared their writings with the group and with me. This, over time, led to a deepening of the writing and to a discussion about what the primary themes of the exhibit should be (consensus)( and what sorts of objects and photographs could be used to illustrate those themes. Ultimately, as we turned the narratives into recorded interviews and then scripted them for video, the narrators helped to locate and lend the needed 400 photos and a dozen objects which made the exhibit. The most important aspect of this, and is the distinction between oral history and narration, is that the participants had complete control over the content.
Monday January 14, 2013 12:08 jacqueline peterson-loomis
12:09
The Oregonian: 
Jackie, perhaps you can answer this question from Katie Gray as well.

[Comment From Kate GrayKate Gray: ] 
Yes, sir, I'm still shocked. I know that Hood River has tried to make up for its treatment of Nikkei Veterans and residents there. Have other communities tried to make amends?
Monday January 14, 2013 12:09 Kate Gray
12:09
Henry Sakamoto: 
I didn't know enough to be angry about that circumstance. One of my good friends, when he was sign his name to a yearbook or anything, he would write, "Wrong evacuated." He knew we were being wrongly detained, but I wasn't smart enough to know. So I didn't do much until the past several years.
Monday January 14, 2013 12:09 Henry Sakamoto
12:12
Henry Sakamoto: 
Ms. Gray, one of the worst things Hood River did was remove Japanese-American soldiers from their honor roll. They have now restored those names and apologized.
Monday January 14, 2013 12:12 Henry Sakamoto
12:12
[Comment From sue armitagesue armitage: ] 
Kelly's question made me think that in some ways the silence still continues. Though many of us know something about the unjust internment, this exhibit is maybe the first to break the silence about the return. Thank you to all the participants!
Monday January 14, 2013 12:12 sue armitage
12:13
Kelly House: 
I should note, in response to Sue's comment, that the exhibit runs through March, so those who would like to check it out have a lot of opportunity to do so.
Monday January 14, 2013 12:13 Kelly House
12:13
The Oregonian: 
Kelly, as a student, did you learn about Japanese Americans' internment? Other readers, I'd be curious to hear your experience as well. Did this topic come up in your schooling?
Monday January 14, 2013 12:13 The Oregonian
12:14
jacqueline peterson-loomis: 
Katy, yes, the American Legion Post from Hood River which removed the names of 16 Nisei soldiers in the US armed forces out of the 1600 from Hood River who served from the side of the Hood River Court House in 1944, ultilmately restored the names and apologized. This was the most blatant act of many from Hood River which tried to prevent Japanese Americans from returning to Hood River and resume farming their lands. Unlike other former Nikkei commuiities in Oregon to which more than half of those incarcerated returned, Hood River former residents knew about the intense racism and didn't return in such numbers.

[Comment From California-born SanseiCalifornia-born Sansei: ] 
Mr. Sakamoto, on that note, can you elaborate on why Japanese Americans in Hawaii weren't treated in the same manner? Also, why German Americans, with ancestors from another country we were at war with, weren't interned?
Monday January 14, 2013 12:14 California-born Sansei
12:14
Kelly House: 
It was briefly discussed in our late elementary school history lessons, but the WWII subject matter only touched on the Japanese American experience while spending the bulk of the lesson talking about Pearl Harbor and the scene in Germany.
Monday January 14, 2013 12:14 Kelly House
12:15
Kelly House: 
Certainly there was nothing about the experience of interned Japanese Americans' experience coming home from detention. Nor was there much detail about the experience in the camps.
Monday January 14, 2013 12:15 Kelly House
12:16
Henry Sakamoto: 
California-born, Japanese-Americans in Hawaii were not subject to wholesale internment. There were a few who were sent to the mainland and interned. But when the U.S. commander in Hawaii realized that internment of people of Japanese ancestry would mean internment of about one-third of the population, he chose not to do it. And there were no acts of sabotage or anything like that in Hawaii.
Monday January 14, 2013 12:16 Henry Sakamoto

Kelly House: 
Readers, do any of you have similar or dissimilar experiences in your education?
Monday January 14, 2013 12:16 Kelly House
12:16
[Comment From California-born SanseiCalifornia-born Sansei: ] 
When I was growing up, I remember reading stories about how non-Japanese friends helped protect Buddhist-temple artifacts and friends' property while they were in the internment camps. Was there much of that here in Oregon?
Monday January 14, 2013 12:16 California-born Sansei
12:17
jacqueline peterson-loomis: 
I spoke with with a Nisei recently who said that his mother who was from Hawaii was not allowed to travel fduring the war from island to island.

12:18
[Comment From Kate GrayKate Gray: ] 
You are funny, sir. I would think that your faith in authority and in the United States created disbelief in what was actually happening. What were the conditions that helped you begin to realize what happened to you and to your friends, and what helped you tell your story? (It sounds like Ms. Peterson-Loomis's collaborative approach was very important.
Monday January 14, 2013 12:18 Kate Gray
12:18
Henry Sakamoto: 
California-born: Japanese churches were basically of the Buddhist faith. They had their own buildings. So a lot of Japanese-Americans put their personal belongings in the church. But over time many of the buildings were vandalized and their belongings taken.

[Comment From sue armitagesue armitage: ] 
What students learn may vary by state. I taught at WSU in Pullman for 30 years and found that my Seattle students had learned about internment, which was a pleasant surprise to the teacher!

Kelly House: 
On the topic of the exhibit itself, Jackie, you have amassed a large collection of artifacts to bolster the audiovisual aspect. Can you describe to me some of those artifacts and their importance? Specifically, the photos we borrowed to use with our story are remarkable.

For a terrific book about the Nikkei experience in Hood River and Oregon, I'd recommend Linda Tamura's book...
Monday January 14, 2013 12:19 Kate Gray

Kelly House: 
Interesting thought, Sue. I am from Michigan originally, so that could explain why the camps were only very briefly discussed in my school.

Monday January 14, 2013 12:20 Kate Gray

Henry Sakamoto: 
Ms. Gray: In my case, I had a series of positive experiences even though we were forced into detention without due process. After graduation from high school in the internment camp, I wanted to go to college. So I started college in Ohio after getting out of the internment camp. Before I enrolled, I worked in Cleveland in the summer. I stayed with a Methodist minister. I had a lot of positive experiences. I worked in a war plant, right after being released from the internment camp.

All those experiences were positive. Ohio Wesleyan was a small college, so I was friends with most everybody. I was working my way through college, and most people were. So I had a lot of positive experiences. I didn't have any negative experiences while I was in Ohio. Then the following summer I went to Detroit to find a summer job, and again I found a job in a war plant. And again I had many positive experiences there.

Kelly House: 
Jackie and Henry, you both talked with me about "care packages" that Japanese Americans would send to their relatives in Japan after the war. Can you elaborate on what these were, why they were important and the re-emergence of Anzen as a care package distributor?
Monday January 14, 2013 12:24 Kelly House
12:24
The Oregonian: 
Kelly, tell us about Anzen.
Monday January 14, 2013 12:24 The Oregonian

Anzen is a store in NE Portland that specializes in Japanese specialty products and is owned by a Japanese family.
Monday January 14, 2013 12:25 Kelly House
12:26
The Oregonian: 
Mr. Sakamoto, you were so young when you were interned and clearly adjusted to your new life Coming Home. Was the process more difficult for the older generation?
Monday January 14, 2013 12:26 The Oregonian
12:26
Henry Sakamoto: 
For most of the older folks in internment, like my parents, they were immigrants for Japan. But by they were interned, they had been in the U.S. for 30-40 years, and they lost everything. Coming home, it was like starting all over again. They came back with nothing and started with scratch.
Monday January 14, 2013 12:26 Henry Sakamoto
12:27
The Oregonian: 
Readers, do any of you have personal experiences of Japanese internment from your families? We'd love to hear your stories, too.
Monday January 14, 2013 12:27 The Oregonian
12:27
Henry Sakamoto: 
My parents were fortunate, because they ran a small hotel. But the lease under which they operated gave them the option to sublease the business, so when they went into internment, most of the residents were long-time residents. So they asked one steady customer to run the business while they were interned, and he agreed to do that.
Monday January 14, 2013 12:27 Henry Sakamoto
12:28
Henry Sakamoto: 
But that wasn't a common case. Most internees, they lost property and their bank accounts were impounded.
Monday January 14, 2013 12:28 Henry Sakamoto
12:28
jacqueline peterson-loomis: 
The care package story was one which took me by surprise as we listened to the stories written by the narrators. In particular was the story of Yoji Matsushima, whose father came back from internment to try to restrart the family business, which had been totally lost at the beginning of the war. The business was renamed Anzen Trading Company, which supplied Japanese foods and goods, even though they could not acquire any imported goods. All Japanese foods were made in the US. Yoji said that when they got home and learned for the first time what had happened in Japan (the bombings), the retuirnees all wanted to know if trheir relatives were alive and to send them care packages. This was also the start of Azumano Travel. Anzen made up the care packages and mailed them. One of the usual items was canned butter. Yoji loaned the exhibit an original canned butter can, whcih had at the begining served as the Anzen cash register! It is shown in the exhibit along with a list of usual care package contents.

Henry Sakamoto: 
I continue to have positive experiences, not negative experiences. I had one, though. When I got married, my first wife and I went looking for an apartment. We went up to this apartment building in the NW part of town. And the man showing the apartment said, I have nothing against you, but the owner doesn't want to rent to minorities. But most experiences were positive.

[Comment From Kate GrayKate Gray: ] 
Mr. Sakamoto and Ms. Peterson-Loomis, do you find any parallels with how Nikkei were treated with the way that Mexican immigrant workers are being treated in Oregon today?
Monday January 14, 2013 12:32 Kate Gray
12:33
Henry Sakamoto: 
Ms. Gray: We were incarcerated without due process. Mexican immigrants were treated with prejudice, but it was individual experiences. Ours was a wholesale experience -- 120,000.

[Comment From California-born SanseiCalifornia-born Sansei: ] 
My father was interned at Tule Lake as a teen, my mother grew up in Tokyo during the bombings. My father was the oldest of seven and being sent to Tule Lake killed his dreams of being a geologist. He and the next-oldest son in the family helped their parents farm and support the family. While their younger siblings went on to white-color careers, my father and his brother never did. My father always read history and science books, and it wasn't until I was going off to college that my mother told me my father had greater aspirations than to be a farmer (although he was great at that, too).

I have gotten quite a bit of response. Much of it from people who said they had known so little about wartime experiences of Japanese Americans, that they didn't even think to inquire about their postwar struggles to return to a normal life.

jacqueline peterson-loomis: 
Some of the experiences that stand out in my mind are those of Harue Ninomiya, Cannon Kitayama, and Jean Matsumoto. Harue and her Issei parents and her husband came home to reopen their grocery store on N. Lombard. Fortunately, a tenant had taken care of it during the war. But no one came. Or if they came they came at night. Her father kept saying they will come. be patient. It took the return of Harue's two brothers, who fought with the 442nd battalion in Europe, appearing in their American uniforms, to bring former oppers back. In Cannon's case, he graduated from highschool at Minidoka and on scholarlship attended Western Michigan where he experienced no racism. Returning to Portland was another story after the war, so he enlisted and served in the Occupation Force in Japan. There he found his cousins in Toyama, who had survived the firebombing, but the city was rubble. Cannon thenand enlisted for another 18 months if the Army would send him to Toyama. They did, although they never knew his motives. After he returned, he went to the Portland Art Museum school and became a graphic artist. Jean Matsumoto was a child when at Minidoka and when she returned, she lived with her sister in an apartrment in a hotel in Sw Portland which her parents managed. She was very proud that her parents were able to purchase a home for the familyk in 1953 when the Issei (Japanese born) were allowed for the first time to take out citizenship and to buy property. For Jean, the key moment was in 1990 at the dedication of the waterfront Japanese American Historical Plaza. With red white and blue banners, band playing and flags flying she said she was never so proud to be an American citizen.

Even in the Japanese community, there isn't a whole lot of information about the internment during WWII. I would say among most of the present-day Japanese here there is very little knowledge about it. And in Japan there is no knowledge about the internment.

Kelly, the exhibit was suggested two years ago by the Program Committee at the Oregon Nikkei Legacy Center. The Center has a fine permanent exhibit on Internment and on Japantown, but it was becoming clear that the oral history project of the Center had only focussed on the Internment experience and that the current generation of Nisei was getting on in years and had never talked about the difficult period of return and resettlement. At the same time, three books were in the making and have been published in the last year. One by Linda Tamura, already mentioned, one called Coming Home, by Greg Robinson and one called Making Home from War edited by =Brian Demster. Brian, Linda and I with five of the narrators are part of the lecture series coming up. Be sure to clip it from the Oregonian.
