This piece is about the trauma that descendants of the Issei (first) and Nisei (second) generations of Japanese Americans still feel to this day even though themselves were not interned in camps during WWII. My grandfather, Kinuta Uno, a farmer in the South Park area of Seattle, was taken away from his family by the FBI on December 7, 1941, the night of Pearl Harbor Day. The family was not told of his whereabouts for some time. He ended up at Fort Missoula, Montana for seven months while his family was evacuated. His daughters wrote letters to him during that period, letting him know about the crops, how they had to quit school, how they had to sell everything. In "Scanning the Room", this is one of the stories â invisible to others â that I carry inside.
