With Barcelona, the stronghold of the Spanish Popular Front, drawing the attention of all of Europe, no, of the entire world, voices have steadily gathered among elements of the right-wing elite, especially the military, calling for it to be taken and 'the fatherland saved from the evil hand of communism.' General Don Francisco Franco, the father of a rising Spain, became a central figure among these men when he boldly raised a force in Morocco in July 1936.\r\n\r\nFranco's father was a naval officer and he and both of his brothers entered the military; his older brother Nicolas and he entered the army while his younger brother Ramon entered the air force. General Franco graduated from the officers' school in Toledo at the age of 20 and was stationed as a young lieutenant in Morocco, which was referred to at the time as 'Spain's cancer.' There he formed the elite Spanish foreign legion and following the outbreak of the large Rif revolt, this 28 year old foreign legion commander was always at the front of his men on a white horse, earning great accolades. The way his foreign legion and native troops stood at the vanguard in this holy war provides ample proof of the general's bravery and virtue in the Moroccan war.\r\n\r\nFranco became a general officer at the young age of 34 and became director of the newly established military academy after returning to Spain. He then became Chief of the General Staff, but was pushed to the side and made military commander of the Canary Islands following the appearance of the Popular Front government in February 1936. But at a certain point he flew to Morocco, called upon the people to rise up via radio, and was soon back in Spain where he proclaimed a military dictatorship and set up the Popular Revolutionary Army's provisional government in Burgos. These brilliant activities were accomplished within a mere ten days. The days from that point until the present have been spent in a holy war against communism. Franco, a man suitably hot-blooded for Spain, has left a deep impression in its history. He was born in 1892.\"","extent":"3.25W x 3.75H","links_children":"ddr-njpa-1-356","format":"img","language":["jpn"],"persons":[{"namepart":"Franco, Francisco"}],"contributor":"Hawai'i Times Photo Archives Foundation","rights":"pcc","genre":"photograph","location":"Burgos, Spain","creation":"c.1930s -1940s","status":"completed","search_hidden":"Franco, Francisco","download_large":"ddr-njpa-1-356-mezzanine-fb55f1ea1b-a.jpg"},{"id":"ddr-densho-1024","model":"collection","index":"23 648/{'value': 650, 'relation': 'eq'}","links":{"html":"https://ddr.densho.org/ddr-densho-1024/","json":"https://ddr.densho.org/api/0.2/ddr-densho-1024/","img":"https://ddr.densho.org/media/ddr-densho-1024/ddr-densho-1024-17-mezzanine-8f213b2ab6-a.jpg","thumb":"http://ddrmedia.local/media/ddr-densho-1024/ddr-densho-1024-17-mezzanine-8f213b2ab6-a.jpg"},"title":"Digital Library of Japanese American Incarceration Films","description":"The Digital Library of Japanese American Incarceration Films includes over 100 films and videos about the forced removal and incarceration of Japanese Americans on the West Coast during World War II. With footage spanning over eighty years, from the 1940s to the present, this library includes a wide range of projects that represent diverse viewpoints on this important episode in U.S. history.\r\n\r\nThe earliest films in this library were created while the incarceration was still ongoing. Jointly produced by the War Relocation Authority and the Office of War Information, these films depicted the incarceration as benignly as possible and highlighted opportunities outside of the West Coast exclusion area, both to encourage incarcerated Japanese Americans to “resettle” in areas outside the restricted area and to encourage other Americans to accept Japanese Americans as neighbors. After decades of silence following the war, documentary films in the 1970s and 1980s—produced in the context of the Redress Movement—told a different story of racism, hardship, and forced removal and incarceration, including many works told from the perspective of Japanese Americans themselves. In the aftermath of the Civil Liberties Act of 1988, an era of public funding began in the 1990s, which brought a flood of both documentary and narrative films that look at many aspects of the incarceration story.\r\n\r\nEach of the films included in this collection is accompanied by an article in the Densho Resource Guide to Media on the Japanese American Removal and Incarceration (https://resourceguide.densho.org/). Each article includes a synopsis, background information, production credits, and suggestions for further viewing, as well as links to relevant articles in Densho’s online encyclopedia (https://encyclopedia.densho.org/). \r\n\r\nThere are two primary purposes for this project: preservation and education.\r\n\r\nIt is an unfortunate fact of film history that large numbers of important films are ultimately lost to time. While the earliest government-produced films about the incarceration are readily available, a large percentage of films from the Redress era are difficult to find thirty and forty years later. With the generation of filmmakers who produced these early works aging and even passing on, this is a crucial time to preserve these works for posterity. Internet Archive (https://archive.org/) and its robust infrastructure represent the best way to ensure the preservation and availability of these films. \r\n\r\nAs current events bring renewed interest in the World War II incarceration of Japanese Americans, the demand for relevant educational materials increases. While recent years have seen large amounts of materials made available online—including archival documents, photographs, and online exhibitions from the National Archives, university libraries, and community organizations, such as Densho—there has not been any systematic effort to collect and preserve film and video in particular. As such, this collection represents an important archive for both historians and educators, whether to show films in classes or to explore the evolution of how the incarceration story has been told over time.\r\n\r\nDensho intends to continue adding films to this digital library, and we encourage the public, as well as filmmakers themselves, to suggest additional titles for inclusion.\r\n\r\nWe hope that the Digital Library of Japanese American Incarceration Films can both serve as a resource to help educators and researchers tell the story of the World War II incarceration, while also helping to preserve this important event’s rich filmic legacy.\r\n\r\nThe Digital Library of Japanese American Incarceration Films was created by Densho (https://densho.org/) in collaboration with Internet Archive (https://archive.org/), and was funded, in part, by a grant from the U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service, Japanese American Confinement Sites Grant Program (https://www.nps.gov/jacs/). The views and conclusions contained in the films in this library are those of the filmmakers and producers and should not be interpreted as representing the opinions or policies of the U.S. Government, Densho, or Internet Archive.\r\n\r\nSee this collection in the Digital Library of the Japanese American Incarceration Films at the Internet Archive.","links_children":"ddr-densho-1024","language":[""],"contributor":"Densho","public":"1","rights":"cc","status":"completed","search_hidden":"","download_large":"ddr-densho-1024-17-mezzanine-8f213b2ab6-a.jpg"},{"id":"ddr-csujad-38-3","model":"entity","index":"24 649/{'value': 650, 'relation': 'eq'}","links":{"html":"https://ddr.densho.org/ddr-csujad-38-3/","json":"https://ddr.densho.org/api/0.2/ddr-csujad-38-3/","img":"https://ddr.densho.org/media/ddr-csujad-38/ddr-csujad-38-3-mezzanine-1a5261de31-a.jpg","thumb":"http://ddrmedia.local/media/ddr-csujad-38/ddr-csujad-38-3-mezzanine-1a5261de31-a.jpg"},"title":"George Naohara's handwritten annotation","description":"English translation of handwritten annotation from \"George Naohara photo album\" (csudh_nao_0001), page 5: When I went to the Manzanar camp in California, late Hiromu Sasaki took me to Maryknoll School, which was a Japanese language school located on Alameda Blvd, Los Angeles, California. I remember I packed my birth certificate, clothes, and other necessities into my suitcase. Because of the outbreak of the war, I was sent to the camp. I was convoyed from Maryknoll School to Union Station and directed to a train. I do not remember how many hours I was riding on the train. On the way, they gave me a large box. There was enough food for lunch, including oranges. The train arrived at the Manzanar camp. I saw military police from the train. I was instructed to stay in the train and wait until called. I was called. I received two blankets. The staff guided me to the assigned room. I do not remember how many people were there but maybe five to six people were Kibei young men. I was introduced to them and placed my luggage on my assigned cotton bed. On the first day, the wind grew strong. The windows in barracks were not covered with glass, and the sandy dust came in through the windows. I swept the floor to remove the dust. I saw an unfamiliar young man talking to someone outside. I learned that Dr. Shimizu was also incarcerated in the Manzanar camp. I entered a school in the camp, and later I learned that the school was operated by Dr. Shimizu. There were only Kibei young men in my room. They spoke in Japanese. I learned that they attended the Maryknoll School. Mr. Oshita was one of the Kibei young men and was sent from Marysville to the camp. Mr. Oshita and I were fluent in English and Japanese, and I remember we were asked to perform Kanichi and Omiya which was a play based on a love story written by Koyo Ozaki. I played a female role, Omiya, and Mr. Oshita acted Kanichi. The play was fun and people liked it very much. I went to work every day, climbing up a hill by truck and digging a 10 x 10 hole for trash. Two to three months later, I went to work for thinning sugar beets which paid one dollar per hour.
