In 1992, Congress passed enabling legislation that designated Manzanar a National Historic Site. Efforts to preserve the site and protect it as a state and national historic landmark began in earnest during the 1970s through grassroots efforts of\n <a class=\"encyc notrg\" href=\"/Nisei/\" title=\"Nisei\">\n Nisei\n </a>\n and\n <a class=\"encyc notrg\" href=\"/Sansei/\" title=\"Sansei\">\n Sansei\n </a>\n activists who wanted to make sure the tragedy that Japanese Americans endured during World War II never happened again. Today the National Park Service administers the site and offer extensive interpretation of the site's many layers of history from 1885 to the present, focusing on the wartime incarceration of Japanese Americans, but also including the site's Native American history, agricultural history, and the role that Manzanar continues to play as a site of pilgrimages and civil rights public education.\n </p>\n <div id=\"authorByline\">\n <b>\n Authored by\n <a class=\"encyc notrg\" href=\"/Cherstin_M._Lyon/\" title=\"Cherstin M.
