DESCRIPTION:"Interested in what happened to Japanese Canadians when the Can
 adian government invoked the War Measures Act in 1942 and stripped their c
 itizenship rights\, categorizing them as enemy aliens and sending them to 
 internment camps throughout the B.C. interior?\n\nSFU Library Special Coll
 ections recently obtained a large collection of materials from one of thes
 e camps\, the Blue River road camp. The documents detail how the governmen
 t ran the camps\, how the interned men coordinated resistance\, how local 
 businesses used them as labourers\, and much more.\n\nOn Thursday\, Feb. 2
 0\, 2014\, 12:30-1:30 p.m.\, join Kirsten Emiko McAllister\, an associate 
 professor in the School of Communication for a discussion on&nbsp\;<em>The
  Japanese-Canadian Blue River Road Camp Collection.</em>&nbsp\;She'll expl
 ain the significance of these records for understanding one of the Canadia
 n government&rsquo\;s many programs to manage unwanted racial difference.\
 n\nMcAllister is the author of&nbsp\;<em>Terrain of Memory: A Japanese Can
 adian Memorial Project</em>.&nbsp\;\n\nThe free event takes place at the W
 .A.C. Bennett Library\, Special Collections\, at the Burnaby campus."\n\nh
