Hayakawa & Japanese American Internment

About This Item

KPIX Eyewitness News report from May 11th 1979 featuring brief scenes from an interview about the Japanese American internment during World War II, in which a man states his belief that: "I don't think that Senator Hayakawa really understands what the experience was all about because at the time of what was often called the 'evacuation' in 1942, he was a Canadian citizen living in Chicago. He didn't experience the evacuation and he wasn't incarcerated. So I don't think that he really has an understanding of that whole experience."
