What's that?
I need your help on Sunday.
Yeah, sure. No problem.

The sax I picked up on my own.
The baseball, that was my dad.
Taught me everything I know about it.
And it got me an athletic scholarship

My older brother Lane went straight from
high school to working to help the family...
...so I'm gonna be the first
to go to college.
Jazz and baseball.
Yesterday...
...December 7th, 1941...
...a date which will live in infamy...
...the United States of America...
...was suddenly
and deliberately attacked...
...by naval and air forces
of the Empire of Japan.
The United States was at peace
with that nation...
...and at the solicitation of Japan...
...was still in conversation
with its government and its emperor...
...looking toward the maintenance
of peace in the Pacific.
We were given 10 days' notice.
Ten days to close the family business...
...to sell our furniture,
to clear everything from our home.
We gave our dog to the neighbors.
I smashed my records
and left them there.
We were only allowed to bring
First we were held
at the Santa Anita racetrack...
...living in a horse stall.
Then we were taken further away.
Everything we had known was gone.
--determination of our people.
We will gain the inevitable triumph...
...so help us God.
- Prisoner, step away from the fence.
- Identification?
Get on with it, now.
Keep away from the damn fence!
Follow all instructions and keep calm.
Okay, keep the line moving.
Go to the center circle.
Find your belongings. Stand in line.
Once again, those of you
exiting these vehicles...
...or anyone by the center circle...
...keep the line moving.
Head of the line's right there.
If you're not sure what line
you're supposed to be in...
...find a soldier or an officer
that is near to you and ask them.
Once again, once you exit this vehicle...
...go to the center circle
to get your belongings quickly.
- Okay. Let's go.
- If you're not sure, ask one of the soldiers.
They will tell what line you should be in.
Keep it moving. All right,
right here, just keep it moving.
She can get her own things.
Move on. Move on.
Once you got your bag, just move on.
Hey. You, in the gray cap.
You understand English?
Get up, get back in line.
Go, go, go.
- She's my mother.
- I'm okay. Go, go.
Find your belongings
and then get in line.
Once again,
those of you exiting these vehicles...
- How are you?
- I'm fine.
Okay.
Can we have everyone's attention?
Inspection is in a few minutes.
Not enough time to go outside.
We change here.
Men and boys, come to this side.
And will please all the women and girls
come to this side.
Okay.
Block 41, Barracks 11, bed check.
Everybody step to your cots.
Is that one of those trick pictures
like they have at carnivals or...?
