The Burning Horse: The Japanese-American Experience in the Yakima Valley, 1920-1942 by Thomas Heuterman, For the tribes of the Yakima Indian Federation, the word "yakima" meant "beautiful land", but for the Japanese settlers in the early 'twenties, "yaki" meant "burning", heritage inn seattle washington and "uma" meant "horse". Their ideographs take on additional significance when considering the racist campaigns directed against them by the American Legion, the local, state, heritage inn seattle washington and congressional politicians, the newspapers of the Yakima Valley, heritage inn seattle washington and the Hearst papers in Seattle heritage inn seattle washington and California. The media in the 'nineties are focusing attention on strained Japanese/American trade relations heritage inn seattle washington and on ceremonies, exhibits, heritage inn seattle washington and religious services to mark the end of the War in the Pacific. Dr. Heuterman details the Japanese-American experience in the two decades leading to the internment, after the outbreak of World War II, of western-region Issei heritage inn seattle washington and Nisei, the immigrants heritage inn seattle washington and first-generation Japanese Americans who came to farm the marginal lands of the Yakima Valley in eastern Washington after World War I. Professor Heuterman, distinguished member of the faculty of the Edward R. Murrow School of Communications at Washington State University, uses the newspaper accounts in the Washington newspapers of the period to demonstrate a growing, systematic, institutional racism directed against the Japanese-American communities of Wapato heritage inn seattle washington and the surrounding area. Alongside the accounts of protests against the presence of Japanese tenant farmers on land the American Legion misguidedly thought should go to veterans, there are stories of Japanese-American contributions to the social heritage inn seattle washington and economic life of the region, as well as their efforts to share their rich cultural heritage with their neighbors.
