It’s just about time!
From my archive…
Those Japanese Americans were moved to internment camps. They were force to sell their stuffs. - If there is moving sale or yard sale well with them I guess it’s evacuation sale right. -UHG-
Japanese Americans back then were detained for up to 4 years, without due process of law or any factual basis. They were forced to live in bleak, remote camps behind barbed wire and under the surveillance of armed guards. Japanese American internment raised questions about the rights of American citizens as embodied in the first ten amendments to the Constitution.
So I was watching again television last night and saw that former Japanese-American students graduate at University of Washington after a 66-year wait (tsk-tsk-tsk…) There are some 450 Japanese-American students who had to leave universities at that time (1942) to relocate to interment camps after the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor. (Now, I can’t blame my sister in law and my cousin’s wife - why she/they have to change her/their maiden name and use ours too…) Oh by the way my sis in-law’s parents were interned back then… Such a horrible thing - for a Government to do to it’s people…
Hmmm, now I feel like seeing the movie “Come see the paradise” - Again…
