{"product_id":"secret-harvests-david-mas-masumoto-9781636280776","title":"Secret Harvests: A Hidden Story of Separation and the Resilience of a Family Farm","description":"I discover a \"lost\" aunt, separated from our family due to racism and discrimination against the disabled. She had a mental disability due to childhood meningitis. She was taken away in 1942 when all Japanese Americans were considered the enemy and imprisoned. She then became a \"ward\" of the state. We believed she had died, but 70 years later found her alive and living a few miles from our family farm. How did she survive? Why was she kept hidden? How did both shame and resilience empower my family to forge forward in a land that did not want them? I am haunted and driven to explore my identity and the meaning of family--especially as farmers tied to the land. I uncover family secrets that bind us to a sense of history buried in the earth that we work and a sense of place that defines us.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David Mas Masumoto\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1636280773\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781636280776\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Red Hen Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/18\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 232\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 6.40w x 1.00d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/15\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eForeword\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/27\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/01\/2023 pg. 15\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eShelf Awareness\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/21\/2023","brand":"David Mas Masumoto","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44073818259711,"sku":"9781636280776","price":26.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5226d301-0523-45c4-8819-4746c7faeb91.jpg?v=1685450087","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/secret-harvests-david-mas-masumoto-9781636280776","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
