Featuring rarely seen photographs by Dorothea Lange, Ansel Adams, and Japanese American photographers employed by the US government, Un-American is an extensive documentation of the incarceration of Japanese Americans during World War II. The authors used key images from the National Archives and Library of Congress, and then tracked down many of the people in those photographs so that the subjects could share their experiences firsthand. Each photograph is thus seen in the context of a very personal history.

Un-American has been the subject of at least 30 radio shows across the country. It served as the basis of the documentary film And Then They Came for Us as well as a massive exhibition in Chicago. Join the authors for a stimulating discussion of this important book.

Included with museum admission. RSVPs are recommended.
