When my father was a seven-year-old child in the countryside of Brazil, he used to go barefoot for many kilometers to school, but he was bullied, beaten and not allowed to speak Japanese.
I grew up in Berkeley Ca. We had very successful Med Doctors and Dentists that were Japanese living on our street, there homes were beautiful. My last Husband was a great man and an American Japanese man, he was many years older than me. His parents were American Japanese. My Husband was one year of age when his parents and he were sent to a Japanese Internment Camp in Utah. Their property/land was taken away too. This was all awful, and the experience ultimately destroyed his Father.
Racism has distinguished the United States for ever. We are Americans but not from the United States,but from Latin America. One does not have to be born in the United States. !Independence for Puerto Rico!
We as a Tribe of Americans seem to still see the world like this, so sad. We are a nation of all cultures, people of all nations who give allegiance to the American flag, the American way of life. We should never treat Americans of any origin with animosity for their nation of origin at war with the US. I live in Michigan, we have the largest Muslim community in the United States here. During the 20 year fight in the middle east this community was treated as if they flew the planes into the twin towers, in this way America as a whole is ignorant, but we don't have to be. Treat each other with respect and build harmony in our multicultural nation. This is what I was indoctrinated to believe America was. Besides, what happened when Obama imprisoned a large population of Muslims in camps? Isis happend, isis is still happening, he created a monster that would not have been if not imprisoned together.
They keep callin them concentration camps that’s far from what they where, where the Japanese went during the second world war was more like a prison or internment zone, the place the Jews went were death camps where almost none made it out alive or even whole. There is a massive difference between and internment camp and and a concentration camp, I’m not saying what was done was right but the Japanese had it incredibly easy compared the Jews homosexuals gypsies political prisoners and Russians in Europe that where captured and killed in real concentration camps it’s disrespectful to those that survived the holocaust to compare the two palaces like they where the same while hundred’s of thousands of Japanese where detained millions of people died due to a totalitarian regime I’m sure that the environment in those Japanese camps weren’t great but compared to dachau or burkenau or auschwitz’s it was a paradise never in my life have I compared or thought of those place equally nor will I ever bacause they where vastly different and terrible in their own way one being a thousand times worse than those people in internment camps could ever know
I've not heard one Japanese-American person say they were sent to death camps during WWII. In fact, I have heard many say that their U.S. incarceration camps were very different from those in Nazi Germany. Why try to stir up controversy that is not there? Spending time and energy weighing out human suffering and rights violations is a waste of time. They both happened. Neither should have happened. Neither should ever happen again to any human beings.
@@chnalvr But, it nonetheless, WILL almost inevitably happen again. Maybe not to the same degree and maybe not tomorrow. But likely sooner than you or I would ever imagine.
I suggest you look up the meaning of concentration camp. It is intellectually correct to call both type of camps concentration camps. It would be wrong to call the Japanese camps Death camps which is what Hitler ordered in Europe. You said that you would never compare the two and yet it's only you that is comparing them. I think that I understand what you are trying to say but it's based on what you think you heard in this documentary not what was said and you have used incorrect wording.
I’m sharing this because it needs to be shared.

It is good to know what our ancestors did so that we can be better.
