Transcript:

Patricia Kennedy-Zafred’s Tagged interprets how fear and discrimination reduced individuals to numbers and stripped them of their rights. During World War II, two-thirds of incarcerated Japanese Americans were U.S.-born citizens, many of them children who spoke English.

This recording features a portion of an oral history from Kayo Natalie Hayashida Ong  and is provided by Manzanar National Historic Site, the location of the former Manzanar War Relocation Center. In Tagged, Ms. Ong appears multiple times as an infant, rendered through image transfer and photo-emulsion screen printing.
