Abstract

Discusses the little known early-twentieth century court battle of Jukichi and Ken Harada, Japanese immigrants, to keep their home in Riverside, California, which they purchased in 1915 in the names of their three young American-born children because the California Alien Land Law prohibited immigrants from owning real estate.
