Scope and content |
A black, hardcover book with a title in gold letters reading, Rambling Reminiscenses
of Haru Moriyama. The book was compiled and expanded by Moriyama's daughter, Fumi
Tagami, in July of 1982. According to the book's introduction, the book was created
from a request from one of Fumi's nieces, who wanted to "know [her] Grandma better
and know a bit more about her roots". The book explores the Moriyama's family history
from Haru's childhood, emmigration to Canada, marriage to her husband Toyoki Moriyama,
the Moriyama family experiences from 1914-1941, and the integration of Japanese culture
into Canadian society. Fumi also includes a brief explanation of the family's evacuation
and internment experience in Alberta after Pearl Harbour occurred.

Terminology
Readers of these historical materials will encounter derogatory references to Japanese
Canadians and euphemisms used to obscure the intent and impacts of the internment
and dispossession. While these are important realities of the history, the Landscapes
of Injustice Research Collective urges users to carefully consider their own terminological
choices in writing and speaking about this topic today as we confront past injustice.
