Cannery Row in Monterey, California. Canners who formerly employed Japanese and Japanese Americans, and the Union to which they belonged, are very anxious to have them return to their former places in the canneries and hope they will do so in time for the sardine season.

Japanese Americans--Evacuation and relocation, 1942-1945--Photographs

This photograph and its description reflects the particular interests, perspectives, and values of the War Relocation Authority (WRA), a non-military government agency tasked with forcibly relocating and unjustly imprisoning Japanese American citizens and residents. Many subjects depicted were photographed under duress, and within a particular historical context: the forcible removal and incarceration of a group of people without due process. We have retained the original description of these photographs to provide information about the record creators and make these collections more accessible for research. We ask that researchers respect the lives of the depicted individuals, their descendants, and their communities.
