Descripci�n Paperback. Condici�n: new. Paperback. Mitsuko Mitzi Asai was not yet ten years old in the spring of 1942 when President Roosevelts Executive Order 9066 sent 120,000 people of Japanese ancestryabout two-thirds of them US citizensfrom their homes on the West Coast to inland prison camps. They included Mitzi and most of her family, who owned a fruit orchard in Hood River, Oregon. The Asais spent much of World War II in the camps while two of the older sons served in the Pacific in the US Army. Three years later, when the camps began to close, the family returned to Hood River to find an altered community. Shop owners refused to serve neighbors they had known for decades; racism and hostility were open and largely unchecked. Humiliation and shame drove teenaged Mitzi to reject her Japanese heritage, including her birth name. More than a decade later, her life took another turn when a Fulbright grant sent her to teach in Japan, where she reconnected with her roots. In From Thorns to Blossoms, Mitzi recounts her rich and varied life, from a childhood surrounded by barbed wire and hatred to a successful career as a high school English teacher and college instructor in English as a Second Language. Today, Asai descendants continue to tend the Hood River farm while the town confronts its shameful history. Originally published in 1990 as Made in Japan and Settled in Oregon, this revised and expanded edition describes the positive influence Mitzis immigrant parents had on their children, provides additional context for her story, and illuminates the personal side of a dark chapter in US history. Its the remarkable story of a transformation from thorns into blossoms, pain into healing. In this remarkable autobiography, Mitsuko Mitzi Asai recounts her rich and varied life, from a childhood surrounded by barbed wire and hatred to a successful career as a teacher and college instructor. This revised and expanded edition describes the positive influence Mitzis parents had on their children and provides additional context.
