Love in the Library with Friends of Minidoka

Join Friends of Minidoka and the National Park Service for a screening of a special short film which features author Maggie Tokuda-Hall reading Love in the Library, her powerful and wistful book about her grandparents meeting and falling in love at Minidoka.

Filmed at Minidoka National Historic Site in historic buildings and on the land where her grandparents walked, this poignant video explores the unjust incarceration of Japanese Americans through the power of place and storytelling. This was Tokuda-Hall’s first visit to Minidoka.

After the film, Friends of Minidoka and the National Park Service will provide updates on their work to preserve, protect, and educate about the lessons of the Minidoka incarceration in the Idaho area.
