In 1942, almost 13,000 people of Japanese-ancestry living in Washington and Oregon, many of whom were American citizens, were removed from their homes and sent to a desolate “concentration camp” near Twin Falls, Idaho. The 14th pilgrimage, June 23 – June 26, will take place with former incarcerees, their families, and friends — from Seattle, Portland and across the nation — to the former Minidoka Camp in Idaho.
Registration forms and additional information for the pilgrimage can be found at minidokapilgrimage.org.
