Gordon K. Hirabayashi prison diary written while in the King County Jail, June 1942
No full textOne of three prison diaries written by Gordon K. Hirabayashi during his incarceration in King County Jail in Tank 3C. This diary spans the month of June, 1942, which runs concurrently with the another diary he wrote during that same time which is dated June 22 to October 12. In this diary, Hirabayashi records quotes, poems, and correspondence from government officials as well as friends. This is a journal of notes and quotes, and does not contain any original writing by Hirabayashi.Gordon Hirabayashi refused to comply with the curfew imposed on Japanese Americans in the wake of the attack on Pearl Harbor, and later refused to report for relocation to the internment camps on the grounds that the directives were based solely on race and therefore were unconstitutional. After the last Japanese were forcibly removed from Seattle, he turned himself in to the FBI with the intention of creating a test case of the government's right to incarcerate Japanese Americans without due process of law. Hirabayashi was indicted on May 28, 1942 for violating Public Law No. 505, which made violating Civilian Exclusion Order No. 57 and curfew a federal crime. He was arraigned on June 1, 1942, at which time he entered a plea of "not guilty" on the basis that both the exclusion law and curfew were racially prejudiced and unconstitutional.
Hirabayashi spent nine months in the King County jail awaiting trial and then lost his case. His team of lawyers appealed his case to the Supreme Court on May 10, 1943. There was unanimous ruling in Hirabayashi v. United States (320 U.S. 81) upholding the Hirabayashi conviction on June 21, 1943. He requested to be sentenced to serve out his term in a road camp and was allowed to serve at Tucson Federal Prison in Arizona but was required to provide his own transportation. He hitchhiked in the fall of 1943 from Spokane to Tucson where he had to convince officials at the Catalina Federal Honor Camp he had a legitimate order to be accepted into the prison. He was released in December 1943 and returned to Spokane
Gordon K. Chapman suggestions for resolutions concerning evacuees of Japanese ancestry and the process of resettlement sent to Gertrude L. Apel, June 1945
No full textThe suggested resolutions, compiled by Gordon K. Chapman of the Pacific Coast Committee on American Principles and Fair play, provide possible ways to express support for the fair treatment of evacuees during the period of resettlement. Among the suggested resolutions are sections that declare "the assertion "America is a white man's country" is un-American;" that the government should provide assistance to evacuees in finding housing and securing financial aid; and that churches should help evacuees as much as possible during the period of resettlement.First established in 1919, the Church Council of Greater Seattle (then known as the Seattle Federation of Churches) served as an important organization in the Pacific Northwest community, frequently aiding in local humanitarian causes. During World War II they organized various programs aimed at supporting Japanese-Americans who were subjected to various forms of discrimination including but not limited to forced evacuation from their homes and eventual internment in relocation centers along the west coast. They also played an active role running a resettlement program to assist Japanese internees leaving the internment camps in trying to find new homes and employment
