  1. Resistance at Tule Lake

    Konrad Aderer / Special Presentations / USA / 2017 / Documentary / 81 mins
    Revealing interviews unearth a story eerily relevant to contemporary times. RESISTANCE ON TULE LAKE focuses on the notorious camp where Japanese Americans who were labeled “disloyal” were held. Emotional, wrenching stories told by the “internees” make clear the consequences of race, wartime hysteria and political expediency.
