Terminal Islanders seek public support for monument

Japanese Americans *** Terminal Island, CA *** Monuments *** Los Angeles, CA *** Internment ***

Explains the evacuation and destruction of the homes and boats of more than 3,000 Japanese Americans from Terminal Island in the Los Angeles Harbor. These people, who were mostly fisherman, were the first to be evacuated en masse and, because their village was made into a military base, had no place to return to after WW II. Efforts to raise money for a memorial to these people is underway.
