Ignorance

It is strange to think that 120,000 Japanese-Americans were placed into internment camps, but the camps could still be kept secret and Americans through fear became hateful (perhaps like citizens after 9/11). There were articles that I read from old newspapers that had the "sensored" versions of relocating Japanese-Americans. There were a multitude of stories suggesting that the temporary confinement of the Japanese-Americans were few. They suggested alternative stories such as new housing displaced Japanese-Americans. Politicians gave their opinions of the federal government interfering with systems outside of their limitations. Its so strange to think what really is being sensored? How much do we know of what is going on in our own country?
