Preferred Citation [Identification of item], Jack and Aiko Herzig Papers (Collection 451). UCLA Library Special Collections, Charles E. Young Research Library, University of California, Los Angeles. UCLA Catalog Record ID UCLA Catalog Record ID: 5237434 Biography/History Aiko Yoshinaga (later changed to Herzig-Yoshinaga) was born in 1924 in Sacramento but grew up in Los Angeles. At the outset of World War II, she and her family were imprisoned in three War Relocation Authority-administered camps of Manzanar, California; Jerome, Arkansas; and Rohwer, Arkansas. Following WWII, she spent five years in Japan before returning to the United States and settling in New York City. In the 1950s, she was involved with a variety of human and civil rights organizations, and participated in community demonstrations as a member of Asian Americans for Action (often referred to as Triple A), one of the very first East Coast Asian American grassroots community organizations to join the fight for civil rights. John A. "Jack” Herzig was born in New Jersey in 1922. Jack was attending Long Island University in New York when World War II broke out, at which time he was drafted out of the National Guard as a reserve. He volunteered to participate in a paratrooper unit, and after basic training, he joined the 503rd Parachute Regimental Combat Team as a combat paratrooper. He was honorably discharged on Aug. 6, 1945, the day the United States government dropped the atomic bomb on Hiroshima. Jack returned to civilian life and resumed his education at New York University but was recalled-to duty at the start of the Korean War. For the next 27 years he continued to work for the military and was honorably discharged as a lieutenant colonel. He then worked at various governmental agencies in Virginia, Maryland and Washington D.C., including the Department of Defense as a counterintelligence expert, before joining Public Technology, Inc., a non-profit organization. In 1977, he was awarded a Conspicuous Service Cross medal by the State of New York. John ‘Jack’ Herzig died Jack and Aiko Herzig papers 451 2 in Gardena, California, on August 21, 2005. Jack and Aiko Herzig played a pivotal role in the redress movement through their research at the National Archives and many other repositories across the nation. The documents they compiled proved to be instrumental in the WWII Supreme Court coram nobis litigation cases that vacated the wartime convictions of Fred Korematsu and Gordon Hirabayashi. They conducted primary research of official documents for the National Council for Japanese American Redress in the class action lawsuit, William Hohri et al., vs. USA. Herzig-Yoshinaga also worked with the Department of Justice Office of Redress Administration to assist with and verify eligibility of individuals from the Nikkei community eligible for both redress compensation and formal legislative letter of apology. In 1978, Jack and Aiko Herzig were married and moved to Washington, D.C. With a project that started as personal research for Herzig-Yoshinaga, Jack and Aiko Herzig began examining documents related to the WWII incarceration of Japanese Americans at the National Archives and Records Administration. In the years to follow, their research evolved into a larger effort with expanded scope. Herzig-Yoshinaga joined the National Council for Japanese American Redress (NCJAR) in 1980 (the same year the Commission on Wartime Relocation and Internment of Civilians (CWRIC) was created) and contributed her compiled body of research to NCJAR's class-action lawsuit seeking reparations from the government. The following year, in 1981, she was hired by the CWRIC as its lead researcher. During this time, they discovered the only surviving draft of the Western Defense Command’s Final Report: Japanese Evacuation from the West Coast 1942, also known as DeWitt’s suppressed version; this was to become the ‘smoking gun’ piece of evidence for the coram nobis court case for redress. Extensive research provided both Aiko and Jack Herzig with expertise needed in the Japanese American community. Jack Herzig testified as an expert witness in the evidentiary hearing for a writ of error coram nobis in Hirabayashi v. the United States (1985) that helped vacate the wartime Supreme Court convictions of Gordon Hirabayashi, Fred Korematsu and Minoru Yasui. The couple also provided evidentiary documents in the near-success of the class action lawsuit filed against the U.S. government by the National Council for Japanese American Redress, among others. Jack Herzig also testified before Congressional subcommittees that the MAGIC Cable intercepts were not proof of Japanese American disloyalty before the war. Additionally with the passage of the Civil Liberties Act of 1988, Herzig-Yoshinaga (with the assistance of Jack Herzig) was hired by the Department of Justice to conduct research for the Office of Redress Administration to identify Japanese Americans eligible for reparations and a formal Presidential letter of apology. Over the years, the Herzigs continued to offer research assistance to the general public and served as consultants for the Smithsonian lnstitute's exhibit "A More Perfect Union." Together they received many honors for their work. Aiko Herzig-Yoshinaga has personally published the monograph, "Words Can Lie or Clarify: Terminology of the World War II Incarceration of Japanese Americans.” Additionally she was principal editor of the publication, Speaking Out for Personal Justice, co-edited with Marjorie Lee, and funded by a grant from the Civil Liberties Public Education Fund. Scope and Content The collection consists of material compiled by and related to the research of community advocates Jack and Aiko Herzig regarding the World War II incarceration of Japanese Americans, the Japanese American redress movement, and wartime convictions of Japanese Americans in the Supreme Court Coram nobis cases. Additionally, there is information pertaining to the MAGIC Cables and the National Japanese American Memorial controversy. Represented is their participation with and/or for the Commission on Wartime Relocation and Internment of Civilians, the Office of Redress Administration, the National Council for Japanese American Redress, and the Civil Liberties Public Education Fund.

  • The Effects of Private Memory on the Redress Movement of Japanese Americans
    From Private Moments to Public Calls for Justice: The Effects of Private Memory on the Redress Movement of Japanese Americans A thesis submitted to the Department of History, Miami University, in partial fulfillment of the Requirements for Honors in History. Sarah Franklin Doran Miami University Oxford, Ohio May 201 ii ABSTRACT FROM PRIVATE MOMENTS TO PUBLIC CALLS FOR JUSTICE: THE EFFECTS OF PRIVVATE MEMORY ON THE REDRESS MOVEMENT OF JAPANESE AMERICANS Sarah Doran It has been 68 years since President Roosevelt signed Executive Order 9066, which led to the internment of more than 110,000 Japanese Americans. This period of internment would shape the lives of all of those directly involved and have ramifications even four generations later. Due to the lack of communication between family members who were interned and their children, the movement for redress was not largely popular until the 1970s. Many families classified their time in the internment camps as subjects that were off limits, thus, leaving children without the true knowledge of their heritage. Because memories were not shared within the household, younger generations had no pressing reason to fight for redress. It was only after an opening in the avenue of communication between the generations that the search for true justice could commence. The purpose of this thesis is to explore how communication patterns within the home, the Japanese-American community, and ultimately the nation changed to allow for the successful completion of a reparation movement. What occurred to encourage those who were interned to end their silence and share their experiences with their children, grandchildren, and the greater community? Further, what external factors influenced this same phenomenon? The research for this project was largely accomplished through reading memoirs and historical monographs.

JAPANESE AMERICAN INTERNMENT: A TRAGEDY OF WAR A Reflexive Essay Presented To The Academic Faculty Amber Martinez In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in American Studies Kennesaw State University (May, 2014) 1 Japanese American internment in the United States during World War II affected thousands of lives for generations yet it remains hidden in historical memory. There have been surges of public interest since the release of the internees, such as during the Civil Rights movement and the campaign for redress, which led to renewed interest in scholarship investigating the internment. Once redress was achieved in 1988, public interest waned again as did published analysis of the internment. After the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001 and the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan began, American pride and displays of homeland loyalty created a unique event in American history.

These immediate casualties became a rallying point for the United States entry into the Pacific Theater and World War II. However, the 2,335 Navy serviceman and 55 American civilians were not the only casualties of that day. Shortly after the attack in Pearl Harbor, two-thousand Japanese Americans were rounded up and incarcerated under suspicion of being possible Japanese sympathizers.1 They were followed within the next few weeks by around 120,000 others, only because their lineage traced back to the enemy. These citizens and their families would remain incarcerated until 1946, when the relocation camps were officially closed.2 From the camps they emerged fundamentally changed, becoming silent about their experiences. The culture of silence that followed was so prevalent that many of their children knew little to nothing about incarceration and internment.3 They felt that this silence was necessary in order to protect their children and their grandchildren from the shame of what had happened.4 Yet, as the memory of internment slowly crept back into the community, it birthed what we come to call today the Japanese Redress Movement; this protective nature toward their children later compelled around 750 Japanese Americans to testify about their experiences.5 The goals of the Redress movement included: A quest to absolve themselves of the accusations made against them during the war, an attempt to gain monetary reparations for 1 Mitchell T.

Schroeder2 I first saw Gordon Hirabayashi on March 2, 1987, when I walked into the courtroom of our Seattle Courthouse for the oral argument of his case seeking a writ of coram nobis to overturn his wartime convictions forty-four years before. I had barely heard of coram nobis, and now the opinion in his case is our leading authority on it.3 Gordon sat in the courtroom ramrod straight, and the light from the courtroom window seemed to put him in a sort of a halo. I knew it was going to be an historic day. There were all the portents. The presiding judge of our court, Ted Goodwin of Oregon, was not only a veteran federal judge, he was a veteran of World War II.4 But for the atomic bomb, in all likelihood he would have died in an invasion of Japan.
