Maggie did two brave things in controlling her intellectual property. One, she fought for the truth kids should know so they may continue to identify and fight to remove evils like racism from society. Two, she fought homogenizing and canceling by corporations strictly to prevent anything from potentially damaging profits or causing liability. As someone born in Japan, and knowing the Japanese people well, they are the least likely people to disrespect anyone in any way; such is the nature of their culture’s guiding principle of respect for all life. In triangulating factually the dimension and scope of racism in colonialist and racist legacy, she depolarizes the binary predominant view of racism, and shows that racism is actually so widespread and multifaceted, that it’s real origin is classism- the great, silent hierarchy of class that prejudices us all - racially, financially, by zip code, by clothing option, by symbolism, by spoken language, by purchase, by religion, by cultural assimilation, by income, by education - brother, we all have a very long way to go. Good work for tomorrow, Maggie.
Those Japanese Kamikaze pilots were NEVER Americans who bombed Pearl Harbor. They were totally obedient to the dictates of the Japanese emperor. Those Japanese Americans subjected to racism were NEVER disloyal. Not a single case of treason from the group exists.

This is about Japanese American interment camps! You are very hateful! This doesn’t justify putting Japanese Americans into camps! These people were also American citizens! You just don’t get it!

She cried when she saw Japanese soldiers cut American and bayonet those who couldn’t walk. She remembers the faces of those young men begging for water and food.

Why would it be? Japanese American Internment by the US government and the Bataan Death March committed by the Japanese military were completely separate.
