Thread Name: Attacks on Arab-Americans Must Stop!
Subject: RE: ATTACKS ON ARAB-AMERICANS MUST STOP!
During WW11 I lived a few miles away from the Japanese relocation camp near Cody Wyo. They were US citizens taken from their homes put on trains and taken to the Big Horn Vally to live in long buildings with tar paper on the out side and bare rafters on the inside. Their sons were not forced to fight but went and fought for their country (the US.) Many died. They were not locked up like a prison but there were fences and guards. I have offen thought of the young men visiting their familys when home on leave....I hope and pray that we never do that to anyone again......Mary
