Artist's Description
In 1943 the Manzanar internees decided to erect a monument to honor their dead. Skilled stonemason Ryozo Kado was recruited to supervise the work. Mr. Kado, who before internment had been a landscaper and stonemason for the Los Angeles Catholic Diocese, had also designed and supervised the construction of the sentry and police posts which still stand at the original entrance. Mr. Kado agreed to build the memorial only if all internees approved; he must have obtained their consent, because it has been recorded that each family contributed 15 cents to purchase cement for the memorial. Construction of the monument was completed by Block 9 residents and members of the Buddhist Young People’s organization.
