Japanese American resources - Kent Ninomiya

Kent Ninomiya. My high school history book has one paragraph devoted to the Japanese American internment. One paragraph. America doesn't like looking at its messes. There is plenty of information out there for people wishing to learn more about this American tragedy. Today is Pearl Harbor day. Within hours of the attack the American government started rounding up Japanese Americans. Within months virtually all Japanese Americans would be behind prison walls. Their only crime was their ancestry.
