Pictorial Travel Diary - Day 2 - Life Stories
"When Grace Fukuhara was born here in 1942, Manzanar was a
War Relocation Center. Martha Mills was born at Manzanar in
1914, when it was an apple farming community. Three decades
before, Johnny Symmes’ birthplace was a cattle ranch that once
occupied this land.
Together, their life stories illustrate Manzanar’s long history of
recurring human settlement, inhabitation, and displacement.
They reflect the conflicts over land and resource use that shaped
Landscapes and lives in the Owens Valley."
