Executive Order 9066

fuckyeahasianmen:

Today is the 70th anniversary of the signing of Executive Order 9066, which allowed Japanese Americans to be put in internment camps.

“Relocation centers”

In America. Their own country.

There’s no blood and death, but clicking the link and looking through the pictures hurt.

It makes me sad to see people of color displaying patriotism in a land that has repeatedly shown it doesn’t give two shits about them. 

Peace to the survivors and their descendants.

This blog was designed by Dustin Hoffman, and it's powered by Tumblr!

Basically a blog dealing with racial issues, mostly in America but with some posts about other countries as well. While there will be many posts dealing with the black/white binary, I also hope to shed much focus on race issues concerning First Peoples, Latinos, Middle Easterners, South Asians, East Asians, Southeast Asians, people who are bi or multiracial, and any other minority groups I may have forgotten to mention.
