Anti-Japanese sentiments surfaced in many
spheres and Japanese Americans on the West Coast were confronted with confusion,
fear, and hysteria. This would persist throughout the war and its immediate
aftermath. However, many individuals and organizations took the opposite view,
advocating and working for the rights as well as the well-being of a displaced
people. The tenor of the times is reflected in the collection of newspaper
clippings and articles.
The collection
contains an assortment of newspaper clippings and reprints of periodical
articles. The majority of clippings are from the Los Angeles Times and
the rest from other West Coast publications, including San Francisco
Chronicle, Santa Barbara Star News-Press, Pasadena Star News, Sacramento
Bee, San Diego Union, and others.
The
collection also contains a small number of original copies of popular magazines of the day,
including The American Legion Magazine, The American Magazine, Coronet,
Collier's, Country Gentleman, The Intercollegian, The
Commonweal, and The Wellesley Magazine. All have articles related to
the Japanese American internment.
