Documentary on the Manzanar War Relocation Center in California — one of ten internment camps the Army used to house Japanese-Americans without charge or trial after the bombing of Pearl Harbor during WWII.
Aaron and Melissa Dykes created Truthstream Media to figure out what in the hell is really going on around here... their words, not mine, but I agree 100% that the world today is becoming insane. The history repeats itself and we better learn!
Melissa Dykes, the writer and the director, earned a master’s degree, but she never learned about the history of Japanese-American internment in school, and that includes completing two university level American history classes (one of which specifically covered WWII supposedly in-depth). She is asking a simple question: Why wasn’t this ever taught?
This is a sad documentary where the human rights violations on the “minority” simply because of the majority’s hysteria and fear can be easily repeated today... relevant for today's state of the world, and we could seriously learn fron this story!
Very good work of a 2 person team!
