ONE FIGHTING IRISHMAN is a 30-minute documentary narrated by actor George Takei focusing on the little-known story of civil rights attorney Wayne M. Collins who filed lawsuits on behalf of more than 5,500 detainees who renounced their U.S. citizenship while incarcerated at the embattled Tule Lake Segregation Center, considered the worst of the ten WWII detention centers. It will explore the issues that led to segregation and the unprecedented mass renunciations, and why it took more than 23 years to retrieve citizenship for nearly all of them, including George Takei’s mother.
