    This one thing Reagan doesn't get enougt credit on. In 1988, President Reagan signed into law the "Civil Liberties Act of 1988" which apologized for the internment on behalf of the U.S. government and authorized a payment of $20,000 (equivalent to $43,000 in 2019) to each former Japanese-American internee.

They lost their homes, property, bank accounts and all of their precious memories and keepsakes. The living relatives deserve more than compensation than the $20,000 they were awarded!

    A G A G Ok so first your point about how Japan should apologize give is true and it’s disgusting how they haven’t. Second I agree people should stop blaming America or white people for every little bad thing that happens to other ethnicity’s. But I have to argue with the idea that if Japanese get repetition then why not African Americans. First all the people who were enslaved are long dead and the idea that you can get money from there pain is terrible while in case of the Japanese many suffers by the aftermath losing homes, job discrimination and sow on and it was something the government did on purpose. While In case of slavery the founding fathers were forced to keep slavery in order to maintain the fragile government with the idea it will die out eventually.

Sometime between 1860 and 1936 the ideals of republicans and democrats switched. So blaming the "southern democrats that held slaves" is almost like blaming the Republicans of today.

    Twenty-six thousand, five hundred sixty-eight claims totaling $148 million were filed under the Act; the total amount distributed by the government was approximately $37 million. It is difficult to estimate the extent of property losses which were not fully compensated under the Evacuation Claims Act, for the evidence is suggestive rather than comprehensive or complete. First, by the time the claims were adludicated, most of the essential financial records from the time of the evacuation were no longer available. When the Evacuation Claims Act was set in motion in 1948, the Department of Justice discovered that the Internal Revenue Service had already destroyed most of the income tax returns the most comprehensive set of federal financial records.

    This videos took place on August 10, 1988, in which Ronald Reagan explains a little bit of ww2 and the concentration camps in which thousand of Japanese Americans were put in. Speaking more specifically about Norman Mineta and her case. The legislation he signed provided for a reinstitution payment to each of the 60,000 surviving Japanese-Americans. I think this legislation was something good but still the harm is already made.

    True, but it isn't about the money, It is about the principle. What former president FDR did by placing Japanese-Americans in concentration camps was un-American. Former president Reagan can't undo that, he cant travel back in time to 1941 and tell FDR not to do that. Reagan could have simply ignored it, said it never happened y'all are crazy, yada yada yada; but he didn't. He stood up and faced the American people, faced the Japanese, and admitted quite blatantly "Hey look, we fucked up, I'm sorry". While no amount of cash could EVER undo that ugly part of American History, It was the gesture that counted. The money was simply the way we proved that we actually meant it when we apologized.

    This isn’t about you. Your problems are valid but maybe you should look at how the Japanese and Japanese Americans handled their incarceration, with grace, not expecting anything but working hard to rebuild their lives. They didn’t force their problems on others, actually didn’t like to talk about it because they felt ashamed. And they also relied on themselves to try to rebuild as much as they could. Learn from them and learn to not expect anything from anyone else.

    Because those people were still alive then, as were a number who had oppressed them. With African Americans, slavery has been abolished for nearly 160 years now. Unless you believe in inherent guilt, it's kind of wrong to force generations who had nothing to do with it to pay. What we SHOULD do is teach the sufferings of those people so that the horrific experience is never repeated. Investing in our inner cities (such as cutting out the endless "global trade" BS) would go a long way in healing I think as well.

    @@lidiareyes7048 Wrong. The Native Americans that settled in the SOUTH we're the FIVE nations that signed treaties with the Democratic Party, because of this treaty, they all took in slaves and they wanted slavery to continue. The reason why is because they were promised a side next to the Democratic party in Congress if they won the Civil War. These natives dealt with the Democrats and the Democrats use them. The Native Americans that did not want to sign treaties were all killed by these five great tribes. They're called great tribes that they weren't great at all. They were equivalent to the Nazi party or the KKK among the Native American tribes. You don't know about this because they're not going to teach you this unless you research it on your own. Native Americans forfeited their full Birthright. They don't deserve any more. black people lost a lot more than made of Americans ever lost, and now it is out in the open. you want to act like Native Americans lost so much because of land when black people weren't even allowed to study or educate themselves, as they were bred like dogs to make different species of black people. Your comment is nullified as well as ridiculous.

    They are Japanese American, not "Japanese." If you're going to refer to black Americans as African Americans then you should refer to them as Japanese American not "Japanese." And why do you guys keep turning everything about other minorities to black people? This isn't a competition.

    How do you define "good?" Why did our government decide the electoral college was a better way to choose a president than the popular vote? If we did away with the electoral college, would candidates with the biggest budgets figure out how to hack that process as well? Do we live in a reality where economic might is "right" or as you say "good?" As technology evolves to empower its wielder, how can we continue to level the playing field to preserve democracy?

    Look for the history of how our government imprisoned Hopi male elders in Alcatraz in order to force their children to attend government schools instead of remaining with their families. That act undermined the culture of Hopi which included a way of life that allowed the Hopi to survive life in the desert with much lower environmental impact and much smaller carbon footprint than the way of life of those they were forced to honor as their teachers. Consider these links regarding Spielberg's recreation of events at the Carlisle Indian School: kzread.info/dash/bejne/q5qGqtOQc92Zito.html, kzread.info/dash/bejne/eYJlstSHnJnOaMY.html.

Organize, make sure you and your friends vote in every election. Replace discouragement with connection and intellectual discussion that leads to peaceful nonviolent communication and advocacy to defend quality of life for native species and people (regardless of their assets, solvency, and liquidity).

The Japanese Americans returned after the war and rebuild their lives without pulling out the victim card. They ask for no special treatment no compensation.
