Summary:
"Honor
Thy
Mother
is the
untold
story
of 36
Aboriginal
women
from Canada and Native
women
from tribes in Washington and Alaska who migrated to Bainbridge Island, the traditional territory of the Suquamish people, in the early 1940s. They came, some still in
their
teens, to pick berries for Japanese American farmers. Many, just released from the Indian Residential Schools, fell in love in the strawberry fields and married Filipino immigrants. Despite having left
their
homeland and possible disenfranchisement from
their
tribes, they settled on the Island to raise
their
mixed heritage (
Indipino
)
children
. The voices of the
Indipino
children
, now elders, are integral in the storytelling of
their
mother
's experiences marrying Asian men and settling in a distant land. They share
their
confusion of growing up with no sense of belonging in either culture and raised in poverty as the
children
of berry farmers, some with no running water, electricity or indoor plumbing. In a post-World War II racist environment, they grew up in homes burdened with
their
father and
mother
's memory of the 227 Bainbridge Island Japanese Americans forcibly removed from
their
homes after President Franklin Roosevelt signed Executive Order 9066 on February 19th, 1942. Brought to light, in the oral history interviews of the
Indipino
elders, is the effect that historical trauma has on
children
, more specifically
children
whose mothers survived Indian Residential Schools."--Container.
