    GASP I hadn’t seen that perspective, but a scary thought to have – reflecting on our shared shame in America’s internement camps of World War II. Never again. Poignant as always.

      It’s a dark side of our history that doesn’t get enough attention in my opinion. One of my dogs is named ‘Salute of Innocence ‘, which is Dorothea Lange’s photo of Japanese children in an internment camp saluting the American flag.

        Wow! I’m embarrased to say I had no idea about the American Japanese Internment camps until I was well into adulthood — and I was raised in the United States! It’s a whitewashing of our children I am so very concerned over. As we evolve as a society, as we move forward in our interconnected world, our individual and shared histories are what binds us. Knowing those histories, being curious and sensitive of those times, is what allows our society to rise above the fray of politics, disagreements, and push to common goals — keeping a firm grasp on our histories. Thank you so much for another moving submission. I so enjoy reading your work and looking at your photography — a story teller at heart 🙂
