DESCRIPTION:<strong><em>Taken: FBI </em> </strong> \n December 8\, 2010 - M
 ay 29\, 2011\n\nThis exhibit  brings to light the experiences of the famil
 ies  of 118 individuals in the Portland area and 17\,477 in the western  s
 tates taken into custody by the local authorities\, then imprisoned by  th
 e FBI and U.S. Department of Justice directly following the Japanese  bomb
 ing of Pearl Harbor on December 7\, 1941.\n\nA little known prelude to the
  internment\, prominent members of the  Japanese American community&mdash\
 ;mostly men&mdash\;were rounded up by FBI agents  just hours after the bom
 bing. Shackled and whisked away\, often after  dark with no explanations g
 iven to them or to their bewildered and    stunned families\, they were th
 en sent to &quot\;special&quot\; camps in remote\,  secret sites across th
 e United States\, different from the ones their  families would begin to o
 ccupy from the summer of 1942. Who were these  individuals? How was the FB
 I able to target them so soon after the    surprise attack? How was this p
 ossible in a nation founded by and built  on the toil and personal sacrifi
 ces of immigrants?\n\nSponsored in part by  Oregon Humanities\, Oregon Her
 itage Commission\,  Portland State University\, Spirit Mountain Community 
 Fund\, and Target.
