The Rise and Fall of Postwar Coalitions for Civil Rights --Epilogue --Notes --IndexThis book illuminates various aspects of a central but unexplored area of American history: the midcentury Japanese American experience. A vast and ever-growing literature exists, first on the entry and settlement of Japanese immigrants in the United States at the turn of the 20th century, then on the experience of the immigrants and their American-born children during World War II. Yet the essential question, "What happened afterwards?" remains all but unanswered in historical literature. Excluded from the wartime economic boom and scarred psychologically by their wartime ordeal, the former camp inmates struggled to remake their lives in the years that followed. This volume consists of a series of case studies that shed light on various developments relating to Japanese Americans in the aftermath of their wartime confinement, including resettlement nationwide, the mental and physical readjustment of the former inmates, and their political engagement, most notably in concert with other racialized and ethnic minority groups.ACLS Fellows' Publications.Japanese AmericansSocial conditions20th centuryJapanese AmericansPolitics and government20th centuryJapanese AmericansCivil rightsHistory20th centuryJapanese AmericansForced removal and internment, 1942-1945Cold WarSocial aspectsUnited StatesCommunity lifeUnited StatesHistory20th centuryUnited StatesSocial conditions1945-United StatesEthnic relations20th century20th century history.aftermath of world war i.alien land act.american born immigrant children.american history.asian american history.discrimination in american history.ethnic minority groups.historical literature.immigrant struggles in america.internment.japanese american history.japanese american struggles.japanese internment.leisure reads.nonfiction.politics and history.postwar history.race ethnicity.race in 20th century america.vacation reads.world war ii history.Japanese AmericansSocial conditionsJapanese AmericansPolitics and governmentJapanese AmericansCivil rightsHistoryJapanese AmericansForced removal and internment, 1942-1945.Cold WarSocial aspectsCommunity lifeHistory973/.04956Robinson Greg1966-512224MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910787594903321After Camp1766373UNINA
