Today marks the commemoration of EO 9066, a significant event that, in conjunction with the Korematsu v. United States SCOTUS case, authorized the confinement of Japanese-American individuals in locations like the Amache Internment Camp situated near Grenada, Colorado.

The surprising archaeology of Japanese American internment gardens | Bonnie J. Clark | TEDxMileHigh
This past June I had the humbling privilege to perform some digital archaeology fieldwork at the Amache Japanese-American Internment Camp in Grenada, Colorado. I'm very excited about the progress we've made so far and can't wait to share the galleries when our post-processing is complete.

Digitizing Memories: The Virtualization of the Japanese-American Internment Camp Amache
To contribute to keeping alive the memories of what happened at the Amache Camp, which recently become part of the National Park System, University of South Florida Institute for Digital Exploration (IDEx) staff members and History graduate students Kylie Dillinger and Angela Costello traveled to the site during the summer of 2022 with a singular goal in mind: to tell the story of the daily life of the internees and to make this story more accessible to the public.
