Unforgotten voices from Heart Mountain / by Joanne Oppenheim and Nancy Matsumoto by Oppenheim, Joanne, author. New York, NY : Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Inc., [2023] Subjects Heart Mountain Relocation Center (Wyo.)   Japanese Americans -- Forced removal and internment, 1942-1945.   World War, 1939-1945 -- Concentration camps -- Wyoming.   World War, 1939-1945 -- Personal narratives, American ISBN:  9798987969304 (paperback) : Description:  221 pages : illustrations, portraits ; 23 cm Requests:  0 Summary:  "UNFORGOTTEN Voices from Heart Mountain chronicles the lives of those who lived on both sides of the barbed wire fence in a place known as Heart Mountain, a U.S. government prison camp in the harsh high desert of Wyoming during World War II. In 1941, when Japan attacked the United States, West Coast residents of Japanese ancestry-two thirds of them American-born citizens-became the "enemy" overnight. In a matter of months 120,000 men, women and children were imprisoned in 10 such camps, though their only crime was looking like the enemy. Told in their own words, from interviews, diaries, and letters; these are heartfelt histories told by the prisoners, those who imprisoned them, and nearby townspeople. These are personal narratives of students, teachers, young adults whose lives were on hold, those who served in the army, the WACS, and resisters who refused to serve unless their rights as citizens were restored and their families released. From Dec 7th to the post war years, Unforgotten tells the story of a little know chapter in our country's history. Illustrated with photos from family collections, archives, and newspapers. Their voices live on to warn as well as witness what happens when the foundational principles of our democracy are forgotten, and we fail to protect the civil liberties of others as well as our own"--Barnes & Noble web site overview.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   McCully-Moiliili Public Library Adult Nonfiction 940.53177 Op Checked In Add Copy to MyList
