Harada House

Harada House, a National Historic Landmark located in Riverside, California, serves as a significant civil rights landmark that embodies critical issues surrounding civil and individual rights, democracy, immigration, assimilation, and citizenship. The story of the Harada family, who settled in Riverside in 1905, highlights their struggles and triumphs, particularly Jukichi Harada's landmark court battle to retain their home against the backdrop of the 1913 California Alien Land Law.
