About Enemy Alien Files
The Enemy Alien Files: Hidden Stories of World War II exhibit presents the experience of Italians, Germans and Japanese immigrants in the US and from Latin America during WWII. It explores the treatment of over 31,000 “enemy aliens” including their exclusion, forced removal, internment, use in prisoner exchanges, and deportation. The exhibit experience reminds us of the fragile nature of our constitutional and human rights in times of international and domestic crisis as well as the human impact of government policies in the name of “national security.”
