“We had a great turn-out for the film and I have heard only positive comments about it. Personally, the film filled in many gaps about Tule Lake and I am working to include some into my senior thesis.

We had an amazing panel led by folks from Japanese Culture Club and United for Immigrant Justice, who worked to tie the injustices from the past into the present.”

“Focusing on the "segregation center" for those Japanese Americans who were adjudged "disloyal" following an unjust process...Konrad Aderer's film sheds new light on a complex and troubled chapter of this tragic story."”
