Summary

• In 1942 during World War II, Arcadia's Santa Anita Park racetrack became the site of the Santa Anita Assembly Center for Japanese American U.S. citizens, where they were processed, after being removed from their homes and communities for forced relocation and internment under President Franklin Roosevelt's Executive Order 9066. The Civilian Assembly Center at the racetrack became the largest and longest operating one of the eighteen, all were holding citizens until the Relocation Center camps were completed in interior areas of California and other states. Like all assembly centers, and internment camp newspapers, the newspaper operated under strict regulations and censorship.
