Hi, my name is Julie and I am part of the Asian American community. I wanted to thank you so much

for sharing these podcasts about the Japanese incarceration camps. And where I live in Washington,

you can still see traces of what happened. It wasn't even that long ago, really. And in a small town

near where I live, I take my kids to play at the park there and we go hiking on the trails in the town.

And it's still a small town today, but you know, in the 40s, it was also quite small and one of

the biggest businesses there was a lumber mill. And they had employed quite a few Japanese

Americans. I think there were a few hundred Japanese Americans living in that town and then

one day there were zero. And they were all, you know, incarcerated. And even years later when

they were finally freed from those camps, none of them came back to the town. And so even today,

I don't believe there are any Japanese Americans living in that town. And so this little tofu house

that they have turned into a small museum is there by the park. And it's very sobering for me to

think that there were people eating in that little shack and doing their work. And they were a part

of the community. And now it feels almost forgotten in a way. So thank you for bringing voice to this.

Hello friends. Welcome. Before we wrap up our resilience series, I wanted to give you the

listeners an opportunity to participate. So we asked you to write or call in with your lingering

questions about Japanese incarceration. Maybe you want to know more about life inside the camps or

where many of these families settled afterward. Like Julie mentions, this was a part of history that

happened not so far back in our country's past. And it's up to us to keep learning, to ask for

more information and to share when we can. I'm shared with McMahon. And here's where it gets interesting.
