He attended three institutions of higher education: Montana State College, Oregon State College, and Kimball School of Theology at Willamette University. A resident of Oregon from 1928, Rev. Burgoyne served churches in McFarland, LaGrande, Turner, Cresswell, Sheridan, Laurelwood, and Marshfield.\n <sup class=\"reference\" id=\"cite_ref-ftnt_ref2_2-0\">\n <a class=\"\" href=\"#cite_note-ftnt_ref2-2\">\n [2]\n </a>\n </sup>\n His next assignment was Asbury Methodist Church in Hood River, along the Columbia River Gorge north of Mt. Hood.\n </p>\n <p>\n When Rev. Burgoyne and his wife Doris moved to Hood River during the summer of 1942, they had never met a Japanese American. Two months before they arrived, all those of Japanese descent had been forced to leave the valley, following government mandates of\n <a class=\"encyc notrg\" href=\"/Executive_Order_9066/\" title=\"Executive Order 9066\">\n Executive Order 9066\n </a>\n that sent them to concentration camps on American soil. But following an incident that provoked national notoriety during the fall of 1944, Rev. Burgoyne's response prompted local scrutiny for the minister and his wife.\n </p>\n <p>\n Early in the morning of November 30, 1944, local citizens defaced a downtown memorial board that listed the names of more than 1,600 local men and women who served in this country's armed forces. With black paint, members of Post No. 22 of the American Legion blotted out sixteen names—all those of Japanese American servicemen. This action, members claimed, challenged the GIs' status as\n <a class=\"encyc notrg\" href=\"/Dual_citizenship/\" title=\"Dual citizenship\">\n dual citizens\n </a>\n of Japan and the United States.\n <sup class=\"reference\" id=\"cite_ref-ftnt_ref3_3-0\">\n <a class=\"\" href=\"#cite_note-ftnt_ref3-3\">\n [3]\n </a>\n </sup>\n Earlier that month, Post 22 had passed resolutions to prevent the \"rapid and sure Japanization of our little valley.\"\n <sup class=\"reference\" id=\"cite_ref-ftnt_ref4_4-0\">\n <a class=\"\" href=\"#cite_note-ftnt_ref4-4\">\n [4]\n </a>\n </sup>\n </p>\n <p>\n While news media and citizens from across the country criticized the Legion post, it was Rev. Burgoyne's letter that made him the target of a public crusade. On January 5, 1945, his response appeared in the\n <i>\n Hood River News\n </i>\n <sup class=\"reference\" id=\"cite_ref-ftnt_ref5_5-0\">\n <a class=\"\" href=\"#cite_note-ftnt_ref5-5\">\n [5]\n </a>\n </sup>\n :\n </p>\n <blockquote>\n <p>\n To the Editor: I have tried to keep silent, seeking to persuade myself that the removing of the American service men's names was a Legion affair. But I was mistaken! Having occasion to be in several cities lately, and making myself known, have received several times the comment: \"Oh! You are from That Legion town.\" The atmosphere grows cold at once.\n </p>\n <p>\n One man asked me if we had pushed the tombstones over in the Japanese cemetery yet! I come home hanging my head in shame! It is not only the Legion post, but every person in Hood River County that is disgraced.\n </p>\n <p>\n Must I, as a taxpayer, look upon our Courthouse down through the years and strive to keep down the resentment within me? The Courthouse belongs to Hood River County and all its people.\n </p>\n <p>\n I propose that the Hood River post of the Legion take their names up on the hill to their own building there and scratch off all the names they wish.\n </p>\n <p>\n Then permit the people of Hood River County to redeem ourselves in the eyes of the world by placing all the names of our service men and women on the walls of our Courthouse.\n </p>\n <p>\n Yours for the American way,\nA Taxpayer,\nW. Sherman Burgoyne\n </p>\n <p>\n Hood River, Dec. 30, 1944\n </p>\n </blockquote>\n <p>\n The following week, Rev. Burgoyne made an overture to Post 22, explaining in a private letter, \"Personally I don't think any group of foreign language or habits should be allowed to congregate in a single place, no matter what race they may be.\" He suggested that the local Legion separate the issue of Japanese returning to their homes after the war (which he believed should be settled by the government) from the removal of honor roll names, an act that he and other Ministerial Association members were against.\n <sup class=\"reference\" id=\"cite_ref-ftnt_ref6_6-0\">\n <a class=\"\" href=\"#cite_note-ftnt_ref6-6\">\n [6]\n </a>\n </sup>\n </p>\n <p>\n Three weeks after publishing Burgoyne's letter, the\n <i>\n Hood River News\n </i>\n printed the first of a series of six full-page ads: an open letter to W. Sherman Burgoyne. The author, former Chamber of Commerce manager Kent Shoemaker who was also the first Post 22 commander, admitted to making one more effort to \"preserve Hood River for the standard way of living.\" His intent was clear when, playing on Burgoyne's \"Yours for the American way\" signature, Shoemaker ended his own letter with \"Yours for a Hood River without a Jap.\"\n <sup class=\"reference\" id=\"cite_ref-ftnt_ref7_7-0\">\n <a class=\"\" href=\"#cite_note-ftnt_ref7-7\">\n [7]\n </a>\n </sup>\n </p>\n <p>\n Organizing a group of principled locals, Rev. Burgoyne co-founded the League for Liberty and Justice, aimed at countering the valley's intolerance and offering support to returning Japanese Americans. Named after the final words of the Pledge of Allegiance, the fifty-plus members mailed letters of encouragement, met returning Japanese Americans at the train depot, offered to shop for them, and drove produce trucks to warehouses when Japanese Americans were unable to deliver their fruit. Other members wrote letters urging businesses to allow Japanese patronage, published supportive literature, and promoted educational programs.\n <sup class=\"reference\" id=\"cite_ref-ftnt_ref8_8-0\">\n <a class=\"\" href=\"#cite_note-ftnt_ref8-8\">\n [8]\n </a>\n </sup>\n </p>\n <p>\n Still, \"no one knows how hot it was for us,\" explained Doris Burgoyne, who remained steadfast even after her brother fell victim to a Japanese sniper on Guadalcanal. \"We expected to be beaten up or run out of town any moment.\" When Ray Sato, one of the first three Nisei returnees to Hood River, walked into the bank where she was employed, she left her desk to shake his hand, prompting a cool reception from co-workers, eventually causing her to quit her job. Someone threw a rock through the Burgoynes' parsonage window. And Rev. Burgoyne was also frozen out of membership in civic clubs and could not find buyers for his pear crop, forcing him to sell his 10-acre ranch with fruit still dangling from the trees.\n <sup class=\"reference\" id=\"cite_ref-ftnt_ref9_9-0\">\n <a class=\"\" href=\"#cite_note-ftnt_ref9-9\">\n [9]\n </a>\n </sup>\n </p>\n <p>\n In 1947 Rev. Burgoyne was honored as one of fifteen recipients of the Thomas Jefferson Award for the Advancement of Democracy, given by the Council Against Intolerance in America. Selected in a national poll of 500 civic, religious, and educational organizations and 1,000 newspaper editors, he was honored at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in New York. Former Georgia Governor Ellis Amall, Stephens College President-elect Homer Rainey, Eleanor Roosevelt, and Frank Sinatra were among other honorees. Leading off the acceptance speeches, Rev. Burgoyne expressed, \"It is a sad commentary on American life that a person should be honored for standing steadfastly for those things which are right and decent and American.\"\n <sup class=\"reference\" id=\"cite_ref-ftnt_ref10_10-0\">\n <a class=\"\" href=\"#cite_note-ftnt_ref10-10\">\n [10]\n </a>\n </sup>\n The local\n <a class=\"encyc notrg\" href=\"/Japanese_American_Citizens_League/\" title=\"Japanese American Citizens League\">\n Japanese American Citizens League\n </a>\n (JACL) chapter expressed their gratitude to the Burgoynes by holding fundraisers to pay for their train tickets to New York, hotel reservations, luggage, and expense money, while also arranging for JACL receptions in Chicago and other sites along their route.\n <sup class=\"reference\" id=\"cite_ref-ftnt_ref11_11-0\">\n <a class=\"\" href=\"#cite_note-ftnt_ref11-11\">\n [11]\n </a>\n </sup>\n </p>\n <p>\n After returning home, Rev. Burgoyne received surprising word of his next pastorate: a move from Hood River's community of 3,500 with its congregation of 450 to the tiny town of Shedd, with 150 residents and a church membership of 89. Two Methodist district superintendents in Washington (filling in for the deceased bishop who had made the assignment) intervened, transferring him to Hays Park Methodist Church in Spokane, a church about the size of his first post twenty-seven years earlier.\n <i>\n New York Times\n </i>\n correspondent Richard L. Neuberger (later a U.S. senator from Oregon) criticized the \"fate of the Rev. Burgoyne\" and questioned whether other ministers might now hesitate before they too considered taking action against powerful community groups.\n <sup class=\"reference\" id=\"cite_ref-ftnt_ref12_12-0\">\n <a class=\"\" href=\"#cite_note-ftnt_ref12-12\">\n [12]\n </a>\n </sup>\n </p>\n <p>\n In 1952, Rev. Burgoyne offered support to former Hood River resident and veteran Sagie Nishioka when he challenged Oregon's Fair Employment Practices Act. Nishioka had been denied a position with the Oregon Tax Commission because \"the public wouldn't approve dealing with a Japanese.\" Twelve ministers, including Burgoyne, sent a telegram to Governor Douglas McKay and two other state officials.\n <sup class=\"reference\" id=\"cite_ref-ftnt_ref13_13-0\">\n <a class=\"\" href=\"#cite_note-ftnt_ref13-13\">\n [13]\n </a>\n </sup>\n In a personal letter to Nishioka, the Burgoynes told him they had also rallied support from other congregations, including their own at Lents Methodist Church in Portland. \"Your friends are all jumping in for you,\" they told him. After the governor released a statement that \"no discrimination will be tolerated,\" Nishioka was hired as a junior accountant.\n <sup class=\"reference\" id=\"cite_ref-ftnt_ref14_14-0\">\n <a class=\"\" href=\"#cite_note-ftnt_ref14-14\">\n [14]\n </a>\n </sup>\n </p>\n <p>\n Rev. Sherman Burgoyne served on the executive board of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) and held offices in a number of fraternal organizations, including the Masons. He died on February 4, 1964, in Yuma, Arizona.\n <sup class=\"reference\" id=\"cite_ref-ftnt_ref15_15-0\">\n <a class=\"\" href=\"#cite_note-ftnt_ref15-15\">\n [15]\n </a>\n </sup>\n </p>\n <div id=\"authorByline\">\n <b>\n Authored by\n <a class=\"encyc notrg\" href=\"/Linda_Tamura/\" title=\"Linda Tamura\">\n Linda Tamura\n </a>\n </b>\n </div>\n <div id=\"citationAuthor\" style=\"display:none;\">\n Tamura, Linda\n </div>\n <div id=\"RelatedArticlesDisplay\">\n <div class=\"section\" id=\"Related_Articles\">\n <h2>\n <span class=\"mw-headline\" id=\"Related_Articles\">\n Related Articles\n </span>\n </h2>\n <div class=\"section_content\">\n <p class=\"mw-empty-elt\">\n </p>\n <div id=\"RelatedArticlesSectionDisplay\">\n <div class=\"section\" id=\"\">\n <h3>\n <span class=\"mw-headline\" id=\"\">\n </span>\n </h3>\n <div class=\"section_content\">\n <p class=\"mw-empty-elt\">\n </p>\n <ul>\n <li>\n <a class=\"encyc notrg\" href=\"/Hood_River_incident/\" title=\"Hood River incident\">\n Hood River incident\n </a>\n </li>\n </ul>\n </div>\n </div>\n </div>\n </div>\n </div>\n </div>\n <div class=\"section\" id=\"For_More_Information\">\n <h2>\n <span class=\"mw-headline\" id=\"For_More_Information\">\n For More Information\n </span>\n </h2>\n <div class=\"section_content\">\n <p>\n Kitasako, John. \"Methodist Minister Led Fight for Freedom in Hood River.\"\n <a class=\"external text offsite\" href=\"http://ddr.densho.org/ddr-pc-19-18/\" rel=\"nofollow\">\n <i>\n Pacific Citizen\n </i>\n , May 3, 1947, 5\n </a>\n .\n </p>\n <p>\n Neuberger, Richard L. \"Hood River's Fighting Minister: No Reward for Valor.\"\n <a class=\"external text offsite\" href=\"http://ddr.densho.org/ddr-pc-19-42/\" rel=\"nofollow\">\n <i>\n Pacific Citizen\n </i>\n (reprinted from the\n <i>\n Progressive\n </i>\n , Madison, Wisconsin), Oct. 18, 1947.\n </a>\n </p>\n <p>\n Star, Everett James. \"Jefferson Award is Presented Rev.
