The federal government built ten concentration camps throughout the interior of the country where they incarcerated the majority of the Japanese Americans removed from the West Coast. This year marks the 80th anniversary of the closure of the camps. Join IKARite Brian Rosenbaum, Kristen Hayashi (Curator and Director of Collections at the Japanese American National Museum), and J.A.N.M. community members, whose family members were incarcerated, for a discussion about this shameful moment in US history, the echoes of which reverberate today. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/ikar-podcasts-881020/episodes/lunch-learn-world-war-ii-incarceration-of-japanese-americans/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/ikar-podcasts-881020/lunch-learn-world-war-ii-incarceration-of-japanese-americans.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
