Subsequent chapters cover Japanese immigration to and settlement in the U.S., the attack on Pearl Harbor, the roundup and internment of Japanese community leaders, the events that led to\n <a class=\"encyc notrg\" href=\"https://encyclopedia.densho.org/wiki/Executive_Order_9066\" title=\"Executive Order 9066\">\n Executive Order 9066\n </a>\n , and Korematsu's decision to defy the exclusion orders, mixing in biographical information on Korematsu and his family. The core of the book covers Korematsu's various trials: his initial trial and appeal, mixed in with his experiences as an inmate at\n <a class=\"encyc notrg\" href=\"https://encyclopedia.densho.org/wiki/Tanforan_(detention_facility)\" title=\"Tanforan (detention facility)\">\n Tanforan Assembly Center\n </a>\n and the\n <a class=\"encyc notrg\" href=\"https://encyclopedia.densho.org/wiki/Topaz\" title=\"Topaz\">\n Topaz\n </a>\n , Utah, concentration camp; the U.S. Supreme Court case; and the 1980s\n <i>\n <a class=\"encyc notrg\" href=\"https://encyclopedia.densho.org/wiki/Coram_nobis_cases\" title=\"Coram nobis cases\">\n coram nobis\n </a>\n </i>\n case. Given the legal focus on the book, these chapters include the core arguments made by the lawyers on both sides and excerpts from the judges' rulings, and in the case of the Supreme Court case, from the dissenting opinions as well. A final chapters discusses Korematsu's postwar life and continued activism, the\n <a class=\"encyc notrg\" href=\"https://encyclopedia.densho.org/wiki/Redress_movement\" title=\"Redress movement\">\n redress movement\n </a>\n , and the continuing relevance of the case, particularly in the aftermath of the 9/11 terrorist attacks.\n </p>\n </div>\n </div>\n <div class=\"section\" id=\"Additional_Information\">\n <h2>\n <span class=\"mw-headline\" id=\"Additional_Information\">\n Additional Information\n </span>\n </h2>\n <div class=\"section_content\">\n <p>\n Minneapolis, Minnesota, based author Karen Latchana Kenney has written numerous books for children and young adults on a wide range of topics. The content consultant for this book was Richard D. Friedman, the Alene and Allan F. Smith Professor of Law at the University of Michigan Law School. The book is illustrated with photographs both related to Korematsu and his cases and to the forced removal and incarceration in general.\n </p>\n <p>\n The book draws heavily on the scholarship of\n <a class=\"encyc notrg\" href=\"https://encyclopedia.densho.org/wiki/Peter_Irons\" title=\"Peter Irons\">\n Peter Irons\n </a>\n and\n <a class=\"encyc notrg\" href=\"https://encyclopedia.densho.org/wiki/Lorraine_Bannai\" title=\"Lorraine Bannai\">\n Lorraine Bannai\n </a>\n and like them, draws relatively negative portrayals of Korematsu attorney\n <a class=\"encyc notrg\" href=\"https://encyclopedia.densho.org/wiki/Wayne_Collins\" title=\"Wayne Collins\">\n Wayne Collins\n </a>\n and the\n <a class=\"encyc notrg\" href=\"https://encyclopedia.densho.org/wiki/Japanese_American_Citizens_League\" title=\"Japanese American Citizens League\">\n Japanese American Citizens League\n </a>\n . The details of the story are otherwise accurately presented with a couple of minor exceptions: in describing the run up to Executive Order 9066 the\n <a class=\"encyc notrg\" href=\"https://encyclopedia.densho.org/wiki/California_Joint_Immigration_Committee\" title=\"California Joint Immigration Committee\">\n Joint Immigration Committee\n </a>\n is referred to as a committee of California state legislature and\n <a class=\"encyc notrg\" href=\"https://encyclopedia.densho.org/wiki/Kenneth_Ringle\" title=\"Kenneth Ringle\">\n Kenneth Ringle\n </a>\n 's position with the\n <a class=\"encyc notrg\" href=\"https://encyclopedia.densho.org/wiki/Office_of_Naval_Intelligence\" title=\"Office of Naval Intelligence\">\n Office of Naval Intelligence\n </a>\n is inflated.
