History we might want to forget, but shouldn’t
Tonight at South Seattle Community College (in West Seattle), the Japanese American Citizens League of Seattle and SSCC presented a program for the Japanese American Day of Remembrance  commemorating the internment order signed February 19, 1942. As the years go by, we have fewer survivors left to tell the story firsthand; one of them, 81-year-old Sam Mitsui, spoke last night about having been interned, and having served as one of the celebrated, decorated WWII Nisei fighters: Video thumbnail. Click to playClick To Play Sam is not only a veteran and internment-camp survivor, but also a UW graduate and Boeing retiree. Though he doesnt live in West Seattle, SSCC tells WSB he had local ties, teaching martial arts at the West Seattle YMCA in the 60s and 70s. Also featured at tonights event was Suma Kato Yagi; she was a high-school freshman when her family was ordered to leave Seattle. Suma and Sam were among more than 13,000 Seattle-area residents of Japanese descent who were ordered to the internment camps. Share This

Testing Obama on Boeing?s ?Virtual Fence? Folly
Keeping in mind the corruption and fraud that has seeped into many privatized DHS projects lately, things must really be bad down there with Project 28, just south of Tucson, for DHS to reassert its control over Boeing.
