WIST Quotations<p><a href="https://wist.info/carlin-george/54395/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">A quotation from <b>George Carlin</b></a></p><blockquote>Folks, I hate to spoil your fun, but — there’s no such thing as rights. Okay? They’re imaginary. We made ’em up. […] Now, if you think you do have rights, one last assignment for you. Next time you’re at the computer, get on the Internet, go to Wikipedia. When you get to Wikipedia, in the search field for Wikipedia I want you to type in “Japanese-American 1942,” and you’ll find all about your precious fucking rights, okay? […] Just when these American citizens needed their rights the most, their government took ’em away. And rights aren’t “rights” if someone can take ’em away — they’re privileges. That’s all we’ve ever had in this country is a Bill of Temporary Privileges. And if you read the news, even badly, you know that every year the list gets shorter and shorter and shorter.</blockquote><p><b>George Carlin</b> (1937-2008) American comedian<br>Show (2008-03-01), It’s Bad for Ya, Wells Fargo Center for the Arts, Santa Rosa, California (HBO)</p> <p>Sourcing, notes: <a href="https://wist.info/carlin-george/54395/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">wist.info/carlin-george/54395/</a></p><p><a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=quote" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>quote</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=quotes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>quotes</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=quotation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>quotation</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=qotd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>qotd</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=georgecarlin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>georgecarlin</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=godgivenrights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>godgivenrights</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=internment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>internment</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=abuseofauthority" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>abuseofauthority</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=billofrights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>billofrights</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=civilrights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>civilrights</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=government" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>government</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=power" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>power</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=privileges" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>privileges</span></a> <a href="https://my-place.social/search?tag=rights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>rights</span></a></p>

DoomsdaysCW<p>From <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Wikipedia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Wikipedia</span></a>: Internment of Japanese Americans</p><p>"During World War II, the United States forcibly relocated and incarcerated about 120,000 people of Japanese descent in ten concentration camps operated by the War Relocation Authority (<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/WRA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WRA</span></a>), mostly in the western interior of the country. About two-thirds were U.S. citizens. </p><p>"These actions were initiated by Executive Order 9066, issued by President Franklin D. Roosevelt on February 19, 1942, following the outbreak of war with the Empire of Japan in December 1941. About 127,000 Japanese Americans then lived in the continental U.S., of which about 112,000 lived on the West Coast. About 80,000 were Nisei ('second generation'; American-born Japanese with <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/USCitizenship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>USCitizenship</span></a>) and Sansei ('third generation', the children of Nisei). The rest were Issei ('first generation') immigrants born in Japan, who were ineligible for citizenship. In Hawaii, where more than 150,000 Japanese Americans comprised more than one-third of the territory's population, only 1,200 to 1,800 were incarcerated.</p><p>"<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Internment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Internment</span></a> was intended to mitigate a security risk which Japanese Americans were believed to pose. The scale of the incarceration in proportion to the size of the Japanese American population far surpassed similar measures undertaken against German and Italian Americans who numbered in the millions and of whom some thousands were interned, most of these non-citizens. Following the executive order, the entire West Coast was designated a military exclusion area, and all Japanese Americans living there were taken to assembly centers before being sent to concentration camps in California, Arizona, Wyoming, Colorado, Utah, Idaho, and Arkansas. Similar actions were taken against individuals of Japanese descent in Canada. Internees were prohibited from taking more than they could carry into the camps, and many were forced to sell some or all of their property, including their homes and businesses. At the camps, which were surrounded by barbed wire fences and patrolled by armed guards, internees often lived in overcrowded barracks with minimal furnishing."</p><p>[...]</p><p>Prior use of internment camps in the United States</p><p>"The United States Government had previously employed civilian internment policies in a variety of circumstances. During the 1830s, civilians of the indigenous <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/CherokeeNation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CherokeeNation</span></a> were evicted from their homes and detained in 'emigration depots' in Alabama and Tennessee prior to the deportation to Oklahoma following the passage of the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/IndianRemovalAct" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>IndianRemovalAct</span></a> in 1830. Similar internment policies were carried out by U.S. territorial authorities against the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Dakota" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Dakota</span></a> and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Navajo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Navajo</span></a> peoples during the American Indian Wars in the 1860s. <br> <br>"In 1901, during the Philippine–American War, General J.

Solarpunk Presents Podcast<p>7.3: They Sent Us to Camp: My Family's Experience of Internment During WWII</p><p>If you meet a Japanese American, it’s also a pretty good bet, they probably won’t spontaneously start talking about what they or their family went through, how they feel about it, and how they or their family recovered from the ordeal. </p><p>I (Christina) wanted to rectify that by sitting down with my old friend Chie Furuya, whose parents (as tiny children), grandparents, and other family members were “sent to camp”, to ask her about it. The answers and stories she had for me were both fascinating and unexpectedly heartening. Her people are a resilient, cheerful people and I feel like there are life lessons for all of us here, in terms of withstanding and recovering from severe injustice (and coming out on top).</p><p>Ariel’s addition to this episode description is to point out that Japanese internment occurred in Canada in the early 20th century as well. We (by which she means Canada, or perhaps so-called Canada, as she likes to call it) aren't some bastion of anti-racism and tolerant plurality (if we ever were).
