World War II affected every American in a more substantive way that any other event in the 20th century. Every American, old to young, was involved in some manner in the war effort. How did the war shape their futures? Life on the Homefront focuses on the 1942 shelling of our California coast by the Japanese and explores how the internment of Americans of Japanese descent affected us as a country. In 2015, CFSSB teamed up with a news crew from Japan who filmed local historical sites and interviewed our host. In light of current events, documenting this critical part of our past for its historical value and lessons that may help us today.
