We hereby refuse : Japanese American resistance to wartime incarceration  Cover Image Book Book

We hereby refuse : Japanese American resistance to wartime incarceration / written by Frank Abe, Tamiko Nimura ; artwork by Ross Ishikawa, Matt Sasaki.

Summary:

"Three Japanese American individuals with different beliefs and backgrounds decided to resist imprisonment by the United States government during World War II in different ways. Jim Akutsu, considered by some to be the inspiration for John Okada's No-No Boy, resisted the draft and argued that he had no obligation to serve the US military because he was classified as an enemy alien. Hiroshi Kashiwagi renounced his United States citizenship and refused to fill out the "loyalty questionnaire" required by the US government. He and his family were segregated by the government and ostracized by the Japanese American community for being "disloyal." And Mitsuye Endo became a reluctant but willing plaintiff in a Supreme Court case that was eventually decided in her favor. These three stories show the devastating effects of the imprisonment, but also how widespread and varied the resistance was." --Provided by publisher
