John's Connection #2: concentration camps in U.S.

Although there were concentration camps for Jews in Europe, America had its own type of concentration camp for another race: the Japanese. After PearlHarbour, America "relocated" [citizens of] Japanese [descent] into camps over the western U.S., because the U.S. feared that there was Japanese espionage. Although this was a logical reason, it was still awful that the U.S. was stooping to Germany's level by having these camps. America has apologized after the war for this,but history cannot be erased and it still happened.
