I visited the Rohwer site last spring and it absolutely floored me. I had no idea of internment camps in the east. The museum they have there is small but really effective.

Highly recommend everyone who is anywhere near that part of Arkansas to visit
Thanks, Margaret! I hope you saw the Sulu monument, I actually missed it last time. Pre-StarTrek, he was little George Takei whose family was imprisoned there. I did meet him to autograph the card thanking Rosalie Gould for restoring the cemetery. This entire 2024 Pilgrimage is dedicated to her.I am not going to miss Sulu's stone tomorrow!
