I only found out about the camps after I came to the states. I wonder how little people especially immigrants are aware of this. Europe has no clue of how real Americans live. They only see the soaps like real American housewives clueless of housework

Canada had history. They also interned Ukrainians and others during WW1.

I don't know why people think we're so nice

Excellent essay. Would people be put in camps in America and Canada today based on the wars against those not vaxed, Christians, election "questioners ", etc.

ABSOLUTELY!

Thanks for sharing about this. Whenever I drive by Manzanar in central CA, I get cold, sad shivers & am always gobsmacked by how recently these tragedies occurred. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manzanar
