About this listen

Today we talk with Koji Lau-Ozawa and Leanne Riding about their research into Japanese Incarceration/Internment Camps in North America. We learn a great deal about how America and Canada treated Japanese Americans/Canadians during World War 2 and how that treatment can be seen in the archaeological record today. We also talk about how doing projects like these can help descendant groups reconnect with their history and why these types of projects are important to archaeology as a field.
