Filmmaker Konrad Aderer explores the much-suppressed history of the Japanese Americans who protested their unjust imprisonment during World War II. The 12,000 citizens deemed “disloyal” were relocated to the Tule Lake Segregation Center, a militarized camp where they faced further abuse. RESISTANCE AT TULE LAKE combines rare historical footage with emotional oral histories from survivors and their descendants to shed light on a dark period in American history.
