It was truely inspiring and fulfilling to hear Mr. Doi talk about his experiences with Japanese internment. I was inspired by his positive attitude about the entire situation, and his willingness to share all of his experiences with us. I was also shocked by all the we Americans did to the innocent Japanese Americans during World War Two. We forced them into these camps with no proper clause, despite the fact that most of them weren't even from Japan and were born and raised in America for their entire life. I really enjoyed listening to Mr. Doi and am so glad we were able to have the opportunity to have someone with a firsthand experience come and talk to us about Japanese internment.

I agree, it was extremely shocking to hear what it was like to be in the camps from someone who went through it themselves. I really believe it was a once in a life time experience that I will never forget. I really appreciate the fact that he took the time to talk to us and i am glad we were given this amazing opportunity to listen.

ReplyDeleteYes.. I couldn't agree more with you, Caroline. So upsetting to know that there was no apparent reason for forcing innocent people into the camps... (When most were born and raised in America). It was interesting to hear the story from the perspective of someone who witnessed it compared to another article. I'm glad that we all got that opportunity!
