[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Ethnic Japanese people were also literally kept in labor camps. In some families, US soldiers of Japanese descent went to fight in the US military and their wives and children were sent to labor camps. Shameful. Many of the victims are still alive today. No one is rallying to pay them.[/quote] ????They did get reparations--though it was peanuts. In 1988. [/quote] Yes, by the feds. But, CA state played a part. CA politicians pushed for the internment. https://www.pbs.org/kenburns/the-war/civil-rights-japanese-americans [quote]West Coast congressmen also agitated for the removal of the Japanese. Los Angeles representative Leland Ford insisted that “all Japanese, whether citizens or not, be placed in concentration camps.” In the end, political pressure prevailed, and the army was empowered to force all West Coast Americans from their homes[/quote] So yes, CA state owes Japanese Americans reparations, too.[/quote]
