  • Whatcom READS! looks at internment, life for Japanese-Americans during WWII

    During World War II, 33 families were removed from Bellingham and sent to Japanese internment camps. They didn't come back, and they lost all their property.

    "A lot of them had been here for years and years," said Carole Teshima Morris, who has studied Bellingham's history during the war. Her family lived in New Mexico and avoided the internment camps, and her father volunteered to fight with the Army's 442nd infantry regiment.

    Morris is one of the panelists who will be speaking at a Whatcom READS! event from 4 to 6 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 12, at the Bellingham Public Library. She and other speakers will discuss what life was like for Japanese-Americans during World War II, in connection with this year's Whatcom READS! book, "Snow Falling on Cedars."
