“Enemy Alien”: How Chicago photojournalist Jun Fujita avoided Japanese internment camps

Jun Fujita is the Japanese-American photographer behind some of the most recognizable photographs taken in Chicago in the 20th century, including his shots of the St. Valentine's Day Massacre of 1929, the Eastland passenger boat disaster of 1915, and the 1919 Chicago race riots. Fujita was also a published poet and something of a regional celebrity, known for socializing with William Faulkner and Ernest Hemingway. Fujita's foreign identity also made him the subject of government inquiry and suspicion on multiple occasions — during both World War I and World War II — according to Graham Lee, Fujita's great-nephew and the author of a new Fujita biography, “Jun Fujita: Behind the Camera.” After Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor, Fujita's assets were frozen, his business was shuttered, his cameras were taken away, and he constrained himself to Chicago to avoid possible internment, Lee said. How did Fujita navigate this perilous time for an immigrant in Chicago? We sat down with Lee to discuss how Fujita, a “supremely confident person,” came to rely on both the support of his community and his wits.

After the attack on Pearl Harbor – political debate began about the need to protect the country against another attack from the Japanese, the fear of espionage, and racism all led to the eventual passage of a series of executive orders. Prior to the forced removal from the West Coast, assets were frozen, and the FBI led by J. Edgar Hoover had compiled a list of about 1500 people of Japanese ancestry that the FBI believed needed to be watched. These individuals were arrested the day after the attack. Many of them remained detained for the duration of the war. In addition, On January 14, 1942, FDR issued Executive Order 2537 which required non-U.S. citizens from World War II-enemy countries—Italy, Germany and Japan—to register with the United States Department of Justice. They were then issued a Certificate of Identification for Aliens of Enemy Nationality. Then came Executive Order 9066. This granted the secretary of war and his commanders the power “to prescribe military areas in such places and of such extent as he or the appropriate Military Commander may determine, from which any or all persons may be excluded.” There was no specific individuals or locations listed in the order. It was broad and left up to interpretation. It was quickly applied to just about the entire Japanese American population on the West Coast.  The War Relocation Board was created.    Listen to this podcast on how this went down and what exactly was involved.

Wednesday, December 06, 2023 – Most Americans are aware of what happened at Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941. That tragic act that killed over 2400 soldiers and wounded 1200 more, would bring America into WWII. Just 10 weeks later President Franklin Delano Roosevelt would sign an executive order that would incarcerate people of Japanese descent, under suspicion as enemies, confining them to several internment camps across the country. One of those prison camps was right here in North Dakota. Special Contributor Alicia Hegland Thorpe tells us about a memorial to acknowledge what happened at that site. ~~~ Tom Isern shares a Plains Folk essay, Dry Landers Lullabye. ~~~ Jamestown Fine Arts Association has a $2 million capital campaign.

During World War II, Elaine Black Yoneda [1906-1988], the daughter of Russian Jewish immigrants, spent eight months in a concentration camp—not in Europe, but in California. She was an activist who voluntarily joined her incarcerated Japanese-American husband, Karl, and their son, Tommy, at the Manzanar Relocation Center. But her beliefs were, to put it simply, complicated. While in the camp, Elaine and Karl publicly supported the United States' decision to exclude Japanese Americans from the coast (they hated America's internment policy but hated the threat of fascism in Europe even more and would do anything to support the Allied war effort).Today's guest is Rachel Schreiber, author of Elaine Black Yoneda: Jewish Immigration, Labor Activism, and Japanese American Exclusion and Incarceration. We discuss the story of this activist and her challenges to stand up for persecuted Americans of ethnic Japanese descent and whether she was unique in her beliefs or if her story suggests a more complicated WW2-era American society that we typically understand. We discuss the ways Yoneda's work challenged mainstream society and how she reconciled the contradictory political and social forces that shaped both her life and her family's. Her story was one of many in the history of Japanese-American exclusion and incarceration during WWII and helps us understand this complicated history better.

ADDITIONAL HISTORY: Headlines You Probably Missed

Sometimes the historical moments I share on this podcast are great moments in history, sometimes they're shocking moments, and sometimes they're sad. Today's episode falls under that last category. On February 20, 1942, thousands of people with Japanese ancestry, including U.S. citizens, were rounded up and sent to Japanese internment camps. They were treated like criminals and forced to live in poor conditions. It was a terrible time in history for sure.

Have you ever wondered how your favorite movie was created and put together? Join me as I sit down with Myles Matsuno to discuss the process of producing a movie, from coming up with great ideas to turning them into a masterpiece and the processes involved in obtaining distribution. We also discussed coping with one's inner critic as a filmmaker and finding a balance between the difficulties of pushing oneself to make a film and not feeling like a failure. He shared his views on the film industry and how a filmmaker's personal style enhances a movie. He highlighted the negative effects that social media may have on the creative process, how to prevent it, and how to keep the creative flow going. We discussed his challenges, lessons learned, and how training for marathons helped him focus and develop as a better filmmaker. WHO IS MYLES MATSUNO? Born and raised in Los Angeles, CA, Matsuno's award winning work is often recognized internationally for his unique approach to providing warmth and emotion through his visual images. The outcome is often moving as well as visually stunning. His films are often praised with the tight collaboration between the visual and music atheistic of his works. Having a background in the fine arts, Matsuno attributes his creativity to personal experience, travel, and memories. Finding yourself and expressing it through a medium has always been his form of identity. Within the past several years, Matsuno has had the opportunity to lead efforts in Technical Directing for The Academy Awards, ABC's hit television show Dancing with the Stars, NBA Finals, Country Music Awards, American Music Awards, and most of ABC's primetime programming. Since 2010' Matsuno has competed and won several awards throughout film festivals around the country. Some of his accolades include best directing, best editing, best cinematography, best film score, best sound design, and best film. His two most recent films are titled “Christmas in July”, which had its theatrical release in 2021 and a documentary titled “First To Go”, which focuses on the Japanese Internment Camps and revolves his own family's story.

There is no one in Southern California quite like California fishing and hunting expert Wendy Tochihara. This delightful daughter of World War 2 Japanese Internment Camp parents calls Huntington Beach, California her home, where she raises chickens, her own vegetables, and has five freezers full of meat from various hunting expeditions around California (and sometimes beyond). And she's not afraid to wear her MAGA hat, either. Nor is her mom. She's pro-Second Amendment, pro-sustainable fishing & hunting, passionate about the outdoors and about how California once was and could be again if the politics reversed course. (Although the Second Amendment is about self-defense and protection of innocent human life, not about hunting and fishing). The Republican Professor is a pro-Second-Amendment, pro-hunting-&-fishing, pro-optimistic-MAGA-hat-wearing-former-Japanese-Internment-Camp-Prisoners's-daughter podcast.

Pete Brook: On thinking about images

In this episode, we talk with Pete Brook about images of incarceration, and his thoughts on photo ethics more broadly. He shares how he first came to learn about mass incarceration, and why he felt so passionately about the issue. He discusses his belief in the importance of formal education on visual culture, and his experience teaching both university students and men incarcerated at San Quentin Prison. From this experience, Pete describes some of the responses he received from prisoners themselves on prison photography. What you'll find inside: “A visual literacy is imperative and a visual literacy should have a major part in any photo education.” (6:05)“When I emphasise visual literacy, it's because in my classrooms I want to talk about Gregory Crewdson, I want to talk about Nan Goldin. But I also want to talk about the memes that flashed up on everyone's phones yesterday.” (7:00)“I'm always trying to coach my students into thinking about the ethics of image making. I ask them to think about everything that's outside of the frame. The obvious questions: who's taking the picture? How did they get there? How long can you assess they maybe stayed there? Do you think they should have been there?” (11:40) On the work of Tōyō Miyatake and Jack Iwata, photographers who were interred at the Japanese Internment Camps of Manzanar and Tule Lake: “I've just learnt about this new photographer who was also interred and actually photographed two of the camps, not just one. And so I left my students with a question: Why is it that Jack Iwata's name is only just becoming known? ... Why is it that one biography, one narrative is repeated and pedestaled, and others are not?” (12:35) On photography archives: “There is always space to invite people to bring their own photographs and add vernacular photographs of the moment to the historical moment that the archive wants to speak to.” (16:30)“Photography and colonialism sort of ran hand in hand. Their inventions came about at about the same time, and have really suited one another.” (19:27)“We need to go past the dominant, simple, obvious tropes which seem to stand in for a ‘depiction' of prison.” (24:38)On the responses of incarcerated men to photographs of incarceration (26:47)What does photo ethics mean to Pete? “A few months ago I initiated a discussion with some other photo educators - it's online - and the premise was about fear, and it was my fear. And thankfully they talked me down. But when I think of photography ethics I think of talking about and sharing images in a way that helps people know the world better. And my fear is that images, more and more, are causing alienation, causing confusion, especially amongst young people. And going back to what we said at the very start about visual literacy, you can take any image, it doesn't have to be an image of blight or plight elsewhere in the world. You can talk about the ethics around an Instagram story, you can talk about the ethics of those platforms, you know, which are now increasingly algorithmically run. And, I don't know whether this fits your vision of ethics but … we have to do work, right? We're the consumers, and if you're not thinking about images in a way where you want them to improve society, then you might be inadvertently becoming part of the problem. And my fear is that our current image culture … is that it's too much work for people to do. Or worse than that, they don't even see the work that needs to be done.” (41:28) Links Pete Brook's Prison Photography Tōyō Miyatake Jack Iwata Kelly Lytle HernandezThomas Allen HarrisZanele MuholiUcobia Darm?

Our own John Nomura was born in the Japanese Internment Camps during WWII, so it's no wonder he was greatly moved by American Sutra, a history of Buddhism in the Internment Camps. What was meant to be a sort of book report became a weaving narrative between stories from the book, first person experiences and stories from his family, covering themes of a resilient people who refused to relinquish their dignity, personal protests and the relentless pursuit of mythological trout by sneaking out of the camps in the dead of night. It was a time when Americans turned against Americans and immigrants in a witch hunt whipped up by a paranoid government.  Sounded all too familiar...

On this episode of the Sofa King Podcast, we travel back in time and look at a dark chapter in American history—Japanese Internment Camps. After the attack on Pearly Harbor back in 1941, paranoia and anti-Japanese sentiment reached an all time high in the US, and with the signing of Executive Order 9066, President Roosevelt forced all people in American of Japanese ancestry (citizens and non) into detainment camps to “prevent a second Pearl Harbor.” This was done in spite of the fact that no proof existed that American-based Japanese had anything to do with the attack and using evidence that was fabricated by a war-mongering general. In total, roughly 120,000 Japanese were locked up by the US government (the entire population!). They were given between 2 and 11 days to pack up only what they could carry. They would lose their homes, their cars, any property they couldn’t take with them. Then, they were sent to Assembly Centers—typically fair grounds where they stayed in animal pens waiting to move to their new permanent homes at the Relocation Centers. The Relocation Centers were miniature towns. These ten facilities housed between 8,000 and 18,000 people each. They were short on food and medicine at first, plagued by a couple of riots, and though the inmates had more freedom than a prison, the status of being a detainee was clear to those in the Japanese Internment Camps. Indeed, if you got too close to the perimeter, you were shot, and you couldn’t legally leave. So, who did they let leave and why? What did the captives do for money and employment while they were forced to live in Japanese Internment Camps? What happened to their possessions back in their homes (and the homes themselves)? What was the loyalty oath, and what happened to those who didn’t sign it? Listen, laugh, learn.

Listen. Sometimes, the internet just can't stop talking about politics,  and this is one of those weeks. Since we are technically a podcast about the Internet, we thought it was important that we took the time to recognize the elephant in the room, or rather the infant elephant in the border cage. However, instead of just going straight into the belly of the beast, we've decided to discuss an analogous part of American history and dig into Japanese Internment camps by way of a few posts from both r/history, and r/aznidentity. Little did we know, but according to a very informative breakdown by u/olddivorcecase, Japanese Internment was largely driven by the agriculture sector.
