Thousands who had experienced internment and dispossession were now at risk of banishment.InChallenging Exile,Eric M.Adamsand Jordan Stanger-Ross detail the circumstances and personalities behind the exile. They follow the lives of families facing government orders that uprooted them from their homes, stripped them of their livelihoods and possessions, and proposed to exile them from Canada. And they analyze the court case in which lawyers and judges grappled with the meaning of citizenship, race, and rights in times of war and its aftermath.Watch the JCCC website for more details about the event.
