The Americanization School
Description
Thousands of Issei became US citizens after the federal government, in 1952, allowed them to naturalize. Masuo Yasui taught classes for other Issei, like those pictured here in a Portland “Americanization” school, so that they could obtain the English-language skills and knowledge of American history and government necessary to pass their citizenship tests.
