“Snapshots Of Confinement” delves into the strength of Japanese Americans during World War II and their efforts to preserve a sense of normalcy amidst discrimination and isolation during incarceration. Personal photographs and first-hand stories reveal these historical moments behind the photos. Maintained through collaborative sharing and curation of photo albums, these documents serve as a historical record of family narratives of life in the camps.
