Trump is using the same blatantly racist playbook as used to illegally imprison Japanese American US citizens in WWII.

Robert Reich explains.

Just finished the Rachel Maddow presents: Burn Order podcast. If you haven’t listened to it yet, I promise you’ll learn something about history, you’ll see current parallels, and you’ll be inspired to act. (And Canadians…we share this shameful history too.)

Victoria Namkung: tRump’s #Ice raids recall a painful past for these Americans: ‘I see myself in those children’. Survivors of previous eras of xenophobia say the harms done have lasted generations – and what’s happening now threatens to do the same.

Saw this while touring San Juan Capistrano today and thought of you because my wife and I saw Allegiance and it left an impression we won't forget.

The Ito family was interned at Manzanar.

Today in Labor History May 2, 1945: The Nisei 522nd Field Artillery Battalion halted a death march from Dachau to Austria. As a result, the Japanese-American fighting unit saved hundreds of lives. Yet, even while they fought fascists in Europe, many had families in concentration camps within the U.S.

Peter Hartlaub, Nami Sumida, John Blanchard, Lea Suzuki and Stephanie Zhu: Mass incarceration devastated S.F. Japantown. For the first time, we know how much

"The exile of Japantown is one of the most transformational, and shameful, moments in San Francisco’s history. And it’s a story that’s hard to visualize today, in part because the city’s remaining stakeholders, including the Chronicle, did little at the time to recognize its magnitude.

Yet much of the story can now be reconstructed — through newspaper archives, recently uncovered research, the stories of the expelled citizens themselves and, crucially, the U.S. census. Under the “72-Year Rule,” the National Archives make detailed census records public 72 years after Census Day. The 1950 records were released in April 2022."
