Lim Report with two copies of Gene Oishi letter to the National Japanese American Memorial Foundation, 1990, 2000

The "Research Report prepared for Presidental Select Committee on JACL Resolution #7," aka the Lim Report is a report written by Deborah Lim, an attorney and instructor of Asian American studies, on the actions of the Japanese American Citizens League (JACL) during World War II. The resulting 154-page report details the JACL's role in purposely representing the Nikkei (Japanese Americans) as willing to cooperate and collaborate with the U.S. government while suppressing the internal dissent that existed within the community. The JACL sought to modify and suppress the report. Aiko Herzig Yoshinaga worked with groups, such as JAVoice, to make the original report available to the public. This subseries includes several copies of the Lim Report, correspondence, notes, drafts, and other documents related to the report.
