Scope and content |
This contact sheet consists of two images that has been cut out from a another contact
sheet. Both images found on this contact sheet are images of the same building with
an eagle crest on it. The images are taken at different distances. The image on the
left is more centered on the building and a truck can be seen on the left and a smaller
house can be seen on the right. The image on the right is taken further away and a
pole can be seen now too. The truck on the left is now more visible that the house
on the right.

Terminology
Readers of these historical materials will encounter derogatory references to Japanese
Canadians and euphemisms used to obscure the intent and impacts of the internment
and dispossession. While these are important realities of the history, the Landscapes
of Injustice Research Collective urges users to carefully consider their own terminological
choices in writing and speaking about this topic today as we confront past injustice.
