In California, I am ashamed to say, Japanese-Americans were put in concentration camps. \nMany Japanese-Americans served with valor in Europe.\n\nAfrican-Americans served with distinction in the U.S. Army, but in segregated units.  At home, the laws of the time supported segregation by calling it "separate but equal" .  It wasn't.\n\nWomen were admitted to many jobs formerly held only by men.\nLook up "Rosie  the Riveter."

I'm not sure I can really answer your question, but I can suggest that you check with city hall...they may be able to help you.   Are you talking about Malvern, Arkansas?...cuz I'm familiar with that place and sometimes it's just a really small world.

-Many Japanese were put into internment camps in the main land U.S but there were no internment camps in Hawaii, which half of the population then was Japenese.\n-The name given to the secret project of building an atomic bomb was "The Manhatten Project."\n-The name of the plane that dropped the first bomb was "The Enola Gay."\n-The Japanese also held Americans in internment camps mostly in China.

This is a very interesting topic. I'll contribute with a few of the things I have learned in my history studies.\n\nThe Qing dynasty was forced to cede Taiwan (along with certain other regions of mainland China) to Japan when Japan defeated China in a naval war in 1895. When the Japanese surrendered upon their defeat in 1945, control over Taiwan was assumed by the Chinese government currently recognized at that time: The Republic of China -a one-party state led by Chaing Kai-Shek.\n\nAt the time that Japan took over Taiwan, China was only beginning to bring Taiwan under effective central control, and Chinese control had certainly not penetrated very deeply into Taiwanese society. Although most Taiwanese at that time (as they still do today) certainly identified primarily with Chinese culture --but not necessarily a Chinese nation. Their identities were primarily local, and not national in the modern sense. That is, they did not consider themselves citizens of a Chinese nation. They identified primarily with clans, towns, and regions. The same can be said for most people in mainland China at that time. This was one of the main obstacles for leaders like Sun Yat-sen, Mao Zedong and Chian Kai-Shek. These local identities were an obstacle to overcome in their quest to make Chinese people feel part of a Chinese nation. \n\nAs a result of the (2) Opium Wars of the 1840s, China had already been forced to cede coastal territory to Britian, France and Germany. Being defeated by European powers was humiliating, but for cultural reasons, being defeated by Japan was even more humiliating for the Chinese. This was because Chinese considered their culture to be the superior culture in Asia, and being defeated by an inferior Asian culture was therefore more humiliating than being defaeted by a European power.\n\nJapanese took over administration of Taiwan and the other regions. For the first 30 years or so,  the Taiwanese and Chinese living under Japanese control weren't subjected to any greater degree of injustice or exploitation than they would have been under Chinese control. At that time, both China and Taiwan were still pre-modern feudal societies. During WW2, Japanese control became progressively more exploitative. \n\nJapan's war crimes against the civilian population of mainland China are well known. But in Taiwan --although Japanese administration was certainly unfair to Taiwanese-- there were relatively few cases of gross injustices. It was under Japaese control that Taiwan saw its first organized school system, first universities, first mechanized industries, and first railroads, among other modernizations. People were encouraged to learn Japanese, and learning Japanese was obligatory for schoolchildren. \n\nIn China, people have been educated for several generations to hate Japanese and see Japan as an enemy. Most Taiwanese, however, have an overwhelmingly positive opinion of Japan and Japanese culture. This is in large part because during the post-WW2 period, the enemy that Taiwanese were educated to fear was Communist China, so there was no particular reason for the government to encourage hate or fear of Japan.  Also, during this period, Taiwan and Japan developed along similar paths economically and culturaly, and were both open to Western investment and cultural influence. \n\nToday, both Taiwan and Japan have much more in common with each other than with the Peoples Repulic of China. Both are multi-party democracies with freedom of speech, freedom of the press, etc. Both have very open and vibrant civil societies. \n\nChina, unfortunately, is at least a generation behind in terms of cultural and political development.

I know you will not believe this but there has been a holocaust in this country (I mean other then what we did to the native Americans) take a look at Johnson s Island (northern Ohio); Camp Douglas (Chicago); and Elmira (New York). \n\nThe official U.S. position on the treatment of Confederate prisoners of war during The War for Southern Independence would shock many modern Americans.  The data, facts and statistics have been thoroughly eliminated from American history books.  One must research the original documents to discover the horrible truth.\n\nDuring the Civil War (1861-1865), the U.S. House of Representatives passed the following resolution: "Rebel prisoners in our hands are to be subjected to a treatment finding its parallels only in the conduct of savage tribes and resulting in the death of multitudes by the slow but designed process of starvation and by mortal diseases occasioned by insufficient and unhealthy food and wanton exposure of their persons."\n\nOne Yankee prison commander boasted that he had killed more Confederate soldiers than any Union officer on the front battle lines.\n\nThe story of Confederate prison camps, especially Andersonville, has been misrepresented.  There was no deliberate attempt to mistreat northern POWs.  The South asked the North to send doctors and medicine, and they tried to exchange the prisoners. \n\nThe North refused and finally the Confederacy offered the North cotton and gold as payment to take the men without exchange.  Again, the North refused to do so.  They knew the Confederate States of America would be honor bound to try to feed and house the Union POWs and to do so would hamper the Confederate war effort.  Yankee prisioners got the same rations as our boys, and one of the responders was correct Wirtz was the only person hung for war crimes and that was for Andersonville.\n\nThe yankees sold our blankets and uniforms as souvenirs, charged civilians a nickel to view a “Confederate” at Camp Douglas they stood us outside until we froze to death, we would raise vegetables only to have the yankees take and sell them.\n\nUntil the German Death Camps in the 1940s nothing would remotely compare, something else, yankees should be proud.\n\nMedicine was not as we know today but it was not lie pictured in the movies.  They knew little about germs but practiced reasonable sanitation in fact, there were groups dedicated it just that.  The biggest problems were infection and medicines they used mercury for many cures, which of course kills you.  For instance once a soldier got to the actually hospital they had over a 90% survival rate.  If you look at picture of casualties, their pockets are inside out and many erroneously think people were stealing from them and left their pockets inside out.  Most had nothing or very little to steal what it was the wounded were searching to find where they were wounded.  Look at a Minnie ball and imagine that hitting you.  It is so heavy it does a lot of damage you would off your feet in unimaginable pain and you looked to see where you were hit in the arm, stomach, etc.\n\nAncient Egyptians were doing brain surgery thousands of years ago, most people feel their era is superior and these who came before were dumb.  You can surprise your classmates by telling them there are still sons and daughters of Civil War veterans (especially Confederate) who are still alive.   \n\nLife in general was harsh compared to the way we live but at the same time they had time for leisure things, enjoyed art, music, fashion, riding and everything just about that we do.  Yankees had it better than we did when it comes to disease; like visitors to remote tribes in South America and Africa they have carries diseases in that have killed the whole population,  Yankees usually lives in populated areas and had been exposed and developed immunity to some of the diseases while we dies.  Make no mistakes mumps, Smallpox, bad water and dysentery killed more boys on b

I certainly hope not!  This has actually happened before in the United States.  During World War II all Japanese-Americans were rounded up, taken from their homes, businesses, and lives, and placed into forced work camps.  There they were treated horribly.  Sound familiar?  Most of these people were good American citizens.  Some of them had immigrated from Japan, yes, but it didn't mean they were still loyal.  The American public was scared and angry after the attacks on Pearl Harbor.  Punishing the Japanese living in America was the easiest thing to do.  This was partially done because the government was afraid of spies, but it was mostly vengeance.\n\nThis country was founded on a principle of freedom of religion.  By rounding up Muslims simply because they're Muslim, you're infringing on that freedom.   If the purpose of studying history is to learn from past mistakes, this is one mistake we should learn from.

No. Where did you hear that? I have been to several temples in Asia, some Shaolin, but never heard of this before.
