Eastern California Museum

This is photo of a collage that was hanging on the wall in the museum. The collage was done in memory of the internees at Manzanar from 3/25/42 through 11/21/45. The objects fastened to the board were all salvaged from the remains of the camp. I chose this photo because it spoke to my heart. It is a power full reminder of the horrible injustices that were inflicted upon the Japanese people by our government after the war.
