Résumé
Comprehensive Summary of Toyojiro Suzuki's Internment DiaryI. Introduction: Context, Background, and the Road to InternmentToyojiro Suzuki's diary is an intimate, day-by-day record of a man caught in the turbulent currents of history. Born in Japan in 1903, Suzuki immigrated to the United States in 1920 to work in the fishing industry alongside his father. His life in America-marked by hard work, family ties, and cultural challenges-was dramatically upended by the events of World War II.
Although he had obtained a Social Security number and was married to a U. S. citizen, he never became a naturalized citizen. This technical status would later contribute to his vulnerability. The diary opens at a time of profound national crisis. Just eight weeks after Japan's surprise attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, suspicion and xenophobia swept across the United States, especially against Japanese immigrants.
Suzuki's narrative begins on Terminal Island in Los Angeles-a hub for Japanese fishermen and a community that had long experienced the ambivalence of being valued for labor yet marginalized as neighbors and citizens. With his close-knit community of fishermen, Suzuki was about to face an ordeal that would test not only his physical endurance but also his mental and emotional fortitude.
