Abstract

The article "Designated Enemy Aliens: Humboldt County's Japanese, Italians, and Germans in WWII" by Susan Doniger examines the treatment of Japanese, Italian, and German residents in Humboldt County during World War II. It discusses discriminatory laws and practices that resulted in exclusion, relocation, and imprisonment for these groups. The article highlights specific incidents, such as the forced removal of Asian immigrants in 1885 and the trial of Nissei Japanese in Eureka in 1944. It sheds light on the unjust treatment and hardships faced by these communities during the war, and encourages readers to contribute their own family histories and memories on the topic.
