商品簡介
For communities who have been the target of political violence, the
after-effects can haunt what remains of their families, their
communities, and the societies in which they live.
Terrain of Memory tells the story of Japanese Canadians
elders who built a memorial in 1994 to mark a village in an isolated
mountainous valley in British Columbia with their history of
persecution. Unlike conventional narratives about the history of
Japanese Canadian internment camps, this book focuses on the power of
collective memory to commemorate a site of political violence and
rebuild relations of trust and understanding. This book presents the
challenges the elders faced, including the reluctance of some to
excavate the village's painful past and attempts to turn the
memorial into a tourist site. It shows how their memorial transformed
the valley where once over 7,000 women, men, and children were interned
into a pilgrimage site for Japanese Canadians where they can mourn and
pay their respects to the wartime generation.
