One Place, Many Stories

 
From 1942-1945, over 10,000 people passed through the Granada Relocation Center, also known as Amache. Two thirds of them were American citizens by birthright. They came from across California-Los Angeles, Sonoma County, and the Central Valley. They were doctors, farmers, pastors, and artists. They were men, women, and children of all ages.

These are their stories. While all of them share common threads, each experience at Amache was unique.
