Video promo for "Behind Barbed Wire, Searching for Japanese Americans Incarcerated During WWII" is a new book by Pulitzer-prize photographer Paul Kitagaki Jr. based on the national traveling exhibition, "Gambatte! Legacy of an Enduring Spirit."
“In documenting survivors of the incarceration of Japanese Americans, Paul Kitagaki’s photographs not only document courage, they reveal the greatness possible in all of us. They prove we can rise from even the humiliation of being persecuted and wrongfully accused. I see human dignity in these images. I see a refusal to stand by while others suffer a similar fate. I see hope for the future or humanity.
