Roosevelt on February 14, 1942. Drawing upon previously untapped letters and compositions written by the students themselves during the time in which the bombing of Pearl Harbor and the internment order took place, Pak explores how the schools and their students attempted to cope with evident contradiction and dissonance in democracy and citizenship. Emerging from the school district's tradition of emphasizing equality of all races and the government's forced evacuation orders based on racial exclusion, this dissonance became real and lived experience for Nisei school children, whose cognitive dissonance is best revealed in poignant phrases like \"I am and will always be an American citizen.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Yoon Pak\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/14\/2001\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.71lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.92h x 6.08w x 0.64d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780415932356\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYoon Pak is Assistant Professor of Educational Policy Studies at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Routledge","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43217590878323,"sku":"9.78042E+12","price":122.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_d1b417f0-bbfd-448c-82df-cea648d90e20.jpg?v=1753443447","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/wherever-i-go-i-will-always-be-a-loyal-american-schooling-seattles-japanese-americans-during-world-war-ii-9780415932356","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
