For some reason, images from the Japanese interment camps really resonate with me...A dark moment in American history (and Asian American history for me culturally) yet everyone always seems smiling and making the best of things. Here are some recent finds...spot the denim/workwear if you can!

It's such a shame that so many of the links here are now broken. This thread was a treasure trove of incredible photos, once upon a time! 

(and holy shit, I can't believe the last post was in 2013).
