Tule Lake site and vicinity
Many of the most egregious violations of human rights of the World War Two incarceration of Japanese Americans happened at Tule Lake Segregation Center, but also many of the most resonant acts of resistance. The director will be participating in the pilgrimage, screening Enemy Alien and discussing it with participants, and furthering research for the Tule Lake Project.
When Enemy Alien was a nearly completed work-in-progress, it was a powerful experience showing the film, which touches on the history of Tule Lake, to men and women who lived it at the 2010 pilgrimage. (as shown in pictures). This pilgrimage promises to deepen this experience in presenting the completed film and continuing to learn.
