The artist writes:
"This series of prints explores America's inability to distinguish
between Japanese and Japanese American people. This is what brought
about the internment camps of World War II. In the twelve images,
different Japanese American people stand behind the barbed wire of the
internment camps, while traditional Japanese figures such as costumed
actors stand in front of the wire barrier."

"To most non-Asians in this country, the differences between the
Japanese, Chinese and other Asian people are either indistinguishable
or immaterial. During WW II this insensitivity was expressed by their
failure to recognize the differences between the Japanese people and
Americans of Japanese descent. Today, history is being forced to admit
the gravity of this error in judgment..."
— Roger Shimomura, March 1992
