About this title: Censored by the US Army, Dorothea Lange's unseen photographs are the extraordinary photographic record of the Japanese American internment saga. This work of visual and social history confirms Lange's stature as one of the twentieth century's greatest American photographers.

"Found this one at our school's library as I was walking out of 6th grade lab...wish I'd walked on by. I loved the photographs in this book (by famous depression-era photog Dorothea Lange), and I feel as though they educated me on the Internment, but the author was very opinionated in her description of it. One thing I've learned from my husband the journalist - some events are so horrible that they speak for themselves. The Japanese Internment definitely fits that description, and I don't need an opinionated history professor to tell me that. Shut up, sister, and let the photographs speak for themselves!"
"'The Depression gave rise to several programs of deporting or "repatriating" at least two of these "alien" groups, Mexicans and Filipinos. These policies were part of American populism too.'
'Lange did not make pictures of Japanese people who were unbeautiful or unconventional or down-and-out, and this self-censorship was characteristic of all her photography.'"
