USC’s Shinso Ito Center for Japanese Religions and Culture will present “Hidden in Plain Sight: Uncovering Japanese Enemy Alien Internment at Camp Livingston, Louisiana” on Thursday, Sept. 27, from 5:15 to 7:15 p.m. at the East Asian Seminar Room (110C), Doheny Memorial Library, University Park Campus.
In World War II, Camp Livingston was a bustling U.S. Army base located near Alexandria, La. It is mostly remembered for its use during the Louisiana Maneuvers and housing German, Italian, and Japanese POWs. The internment of almost 1,100 men of Japanese ancestry as enemy aliens is mostly erased from the history of the Army installation, except for passing references.
This presentation follows the research journey of two academic librarians as they begin to address the gap in information surrounding the history of internment at Camp Livingston. Building upon the chance discovery of one extended family’s experience with Alexandria and Camp Livingston alongside in-depth primary document research, life within Camp Livingston has begun to coalesce into a clearer picture that can serve as a social justice tool to illicit the exploration of racially, ethnically, or religiously spurred political decisions that deny citizenship or violate the civil rights of citizens.
This event is supported by the USC Libraries.
