Lecture: Detained by My Country

February 24, 2020

For Japanese Americans who lived in the West during World War II, the removal to internment camps in 1942 as decreed by Executive Order 9066, is an experience they will never forget. Mitzi Loftus was a child living in Hood River when her family was forced to leave their belongings and home and relocate to Tule Lake Camp in northern California in 1942.

For this presentation, Toby and David Loftus will interview their mother, Mitzi, regarding her time spent at Tule Lake. Loftus will share related photographs from her personal collection and will detail her parents’ immigration story to the United States in 1904 and 1911. In addition to describing the removal from her house in Hood River, Mitzi will tell of her family’s movements through World War II and re-settlement in Oregon, with the attendant discrimination they experienced in the following years.
