Tamura is a professor in the Department of Educational Foundations, College of Education, at the University of Hawai'i Manoa. She is the author of Americanization, Acculturation, and Ethnic Identity: The Nisei Generation in Hawaii and coauthor of The Rise of Modern Japan. "A notable addition to the revisionist literature on the wartime removal and¿confinement of West Coast Japanese Americans."--Pacific Affairs ¿ "A substantial contribution to Japanese American historiography and collective memory. Tamura clearly sets forth the importance of dissident leader Joseph Kurihara as a quintessential personification of the transformation of Japanese Americans from patriots to protestors as a consequence of their unjust World War II eviction and imprisonment."--Arthur A.
