- The Impact of Incarceration:
Orange Story and Farewell to Manzanar both show first-person experiences of Japanese incarceration. How does Jeanne’s experience in wartime America, particularly her experience in Manzanar, and her struggle with her American and Japanese identity affect her path into adulthood? How does the her family’s experience differ from that of Koji’s? What similarities do their narratives share? Think about how age, birthplace, occupation, gender, and family and marital status effect their relocation experiences. How will Order 9066 impact their lives moving forward?
