Japanese Americans

After reading the story about the internment of the Japanese Americans, I was disgusted to think that people could treat others in such a manner. Japanese were put into these camps just because of their race and the outrageous idea that just because of their race they were involved in the Pearl Harbor attack and many Japanese Americans homes were searched through by the FBI. I think that people get so distracted by a persons race and stereotypes that are put on people that they forget that their race or beliefs don't make them an awful person. I did like reading, that President Reagan publicly apologized, it just is awful that it even happened in the first place.
