SUMMARY:No-No Boy
DESCRIPTION:No-No Boy tells the story of Ichiro Yamada\, a fictional version of the real-life “no-no boys.” Yamada answered “no” twice in a compulsory government questionnaire as to whether he would serve in the armed forces and swear loyalty to the United States. Unwilling to pledge himself to the country that interned him and his family\, Ichiro earns two years in prison and the hostility of his family and community when he returns home to Seattle. As Ozeki writes\, Ichiro’s “obsessive\, tormented” voice subverts Japanese postwar “model-minority” stereotypes\, showing a fractured community and one man’s “threnody of guilt\, rage\, and blame as he tries to negotiate his reentry into a shattered world.”

SUMMARY:"Resettlement: Chicago Story" the short film
DESCRIPTION:“Resettlement: Chicago Story” is an educational program (film + interactive site) that explores one Japanese American family’s experience of rebuilding their lives in Chicago after they were released from the incarceration camps in WWII. The cinematic digital history project consists of a narrative short film and an immersive educational website for learners of all ages who are interested in post-WWII U.S. history. \nUtilizing the power of cinematic storytelling\, the educational website builds upon both the characters and historical themes of incarceration and resettlement introduced in the film. The film functions to create emotional investment in the characters and the time period and builds the world for the website\, which provides the context of the historical period through primary and secondary sources carefully curated by a team of historians. “Resettlement: Chicago Story” is aimed towards 6-12th grade students but is easily adaptable to other grade levels and the general public.

SUMMARY:Encountering the First American West
DESCRIPTION:With support from the National Endowment for the Humanities\, the Filson Historical Society is excited to announce the re-launch of the First American West\, an online collection of letters\, financial records\, maps\, and objects relating to the Ohio River Valley in the mid-1700s through the early 1800s. Originally a collaboration with the Library of Congress and the University of Chicago\, “The First American West: The Ohio River Valley\, 1750-1820 (FAW)” was an early digitization project that launched in 2000. While it was an early standard bearer for digital history\, it became unavailable in 2016 when the Library of Congress ended support for the project. \nIn our relaunch\, an NEH-funded research team has expanded the project to highlight the experiences of those originally excluded\, including the voices of women\, those enslaved\, and the Indigenous communities that called our region home. \nWe’re so excited to share this digital project with you\, and we invite you to explore!
