At times historical retrospective may define us not only by what is misrepresented, but what is lacking entirely within our timeline. The gaps of information, and most importantly their size and/or duration are determinate to the understanding of our collective origins. Recently a review of the United States Internment Camps for Japanese Americans during World War II brought startling insight into the misinformation by lack of knowledge during this event for much of the last seventy years.
Today, this blemish on the history of America may be explored via several various means, with sources being more predominately accessible. However, for many years the true story of the actions surrounding the forcible internment of U.S. citizens was underplayed if discussed at all in any public forum. With use of YouTube submissions, an overview of the circumstances is presented below:
