Today I remember that because of the inexcusable act of a government thousands of miles away, good citizens were removed from their homes, their belongings and lands sold, they and their families packed into rail cars and shipped away to camps. Many did hard labour. All were deprived of dignity and freedom. Local politicians who championed it, benefited from it for decades.
Germany?
No. Canada and the USA imposing Japanese Internment. After the war, many were forced to go to Japan, even if they were not born there or never wanted to return.
War is injustice, pain, racism, bigotry, and suffering. Always.
