Enemy Alien Files at Southwest Texas Junior College Crystal City Texas Campus

We are happy to have Enemy Alien Files hosted at Southwest Texas Junior College campus in Crystal City, located at 215 W. Zavala St.

The Enemy Alien Files: Hidden Stories of World War II examines the history of civilian

Federal High School at Crystal City Internment Camp, Carroll Brincefield

internment during the second world war by the American government, and explores the

complex history of who gets to be a citizen and why and who is afforded the protections

of due process.

Open from now until January 1st, 2024 Enemy Aliens Files finds a home at SWTJC near by

the Crystal City Camp, one of the largest internment centers for ‘enemy aliens’ and non-citizens

during the war.  Crystal City was the family camp and confined upwards of three thousand people at its most populous and was a staging center

for repatriation and deportation.
