This documentary includes interviews with activists, community members, and former incarcerees; news coverage of the event; highlights of speeches from the protest; and footage of their interactions with the military police. Speakers and interviewees highlight the significance of Fort Sill as a historic site of oppression, first with Native Americans imprisoned in a boarding school and prison camp, then as an incarceration site for Japanese Americans during WWII, and most recently as a detainment center for immigrant and refugee children. The documentary connects the incarceration of Japanese Americans with current immigration detention policies that have led to the separation of children from their families. The film urges solidarity amongst communities impacted by detention policies from the past and to the present. The film was produced by the organization Tsuru for Solidarity, in collaboration with Nikkei Progressives.","url_title":"Fort Sill Protest (film)","categories":["Arts"],"rg_rgmediatype":["films"],"rg_interestlevel":["Grades 9-12","Adult"],"rg_genre":["Documentary"],"rg_theme":["Immigrant experience","Injustice","Power of the past"],"rg_availability":["Widely available"],"rg_rgmediatype_label":"Films and Video","rg_rgmediatype_icon":"fa-film"},{"id":"Yae Wada: 45 Years of Anger (film)","model":"article","index":"7 7/{'value': 9, 'relation': 'eq'}","links":{"html":"https://resourceguide.densho.org/Yae%20Wada:%2045%20Years%20of%20Anger%20(film)/","json":"https://resourceguide.densho.org/api/3.0/articles/Yae%20Wada:%2045%20Years%20of%20Anger%20(film)/"},"title":"Yae Wada: 45 Years of Anger (film)","description":"Video documentary produced by \"What Does It Mean To Be American?\" as part of the Mineta Legacy Project, which features an interview with former Japanese American incarceree,\n  \n   Yae Wada\n  \n  .\n  \n\n    [1]\n   \n\n  At the age of 99, Wada recounts her memories of being placed in concentration camps during World War II, and how she overcame her anger towards the experience.","url_title":"Yae Wada: 45 Years of Anger (film)","categories":["Arts"],"rg_rgmediatype":["films"],"rg_interestlevel":["Grades 6-8","Grades 7-8","Grades 9-12","Adult"],"rg_genre":["Documentary"],"rg_theme":["Immigrant experience","Injustice","Power of the past"],"rg_availability":["Widely available"],"rg_rgmediatype_label":"Films and Video","rg_rgmediatype_icon":"fa-film"},{"id":"History and Memory (film)","model":"article","index":"8 8/{'value': 9, 'relation': 'eq'}","links":{"html":"https://resourceguide.densho.org/History%20and%20Memory%20(film)/","json":"https://resourceguide.densho.org/api/3.0/articles/History%20and%20Memory%20(film)/"},"title":"History and Memory (film)","description":"Experimental documentary film by Rea Tajiri that explores the collective memory of Japanese American incarceration through the act of remembering and forgetting.\n  \n   History and Memory\n  \n  (1991) has been frequently studied by academics and film critics for its cultural impact on the topic of Japanese American incarceration and memory.","url_title":"History and Memory (film)","categories":["Arts"],"rg_rgmediatype":["films"],"rg_interestlevel":["Grades 9-12","Adult"],"rg_genre":["Documentary","Experimental"],"rg_theme":["Injustice","Power of the past","Role of women"],"rg_availability":["Widely available"],"rg_rgmediatype_label":"Films and Video","rg_rgmediatype_icon":"fa-film"}],"query":{"query":{"bool":{"filter":[{"term":{"published_rg":true}},{"term":{"rg_pov":"Japanese American former incarcerees"}}]}},"_source":["title","url_title","description","body","categories","coordinates","fulltext","rg_rgmediatype","rg_interestlevel","rg_readinglevel","rg_theme","rg_genre","rg_pov","rg_availability","rg_geography","rg_chronology","rg_hasteachingaids","rg_freewebversion"]},"aggregations":{}}
