Bit of historical correction; there were Italian and German American concentration camps during WWII but they were no where near the scale of the Japanese internment. Lieutenant General John L. DeWitt who was in charge of the West coast was the one primarily behind the internment and why there were almost no camps on the East coast. Unrelated but another piece of trivia I came across was that depending on when the communities left Japan affected their opinion of wartime Japan. Brazil's Japanese community for example were pro-Imperial Japan while Americans took to their new homeland like ducks to water. The internments were a mistake. Feel free to ignore this and go back to enjoying good rice.

Robin is awesome and very beautiful. Thanks for participating in the video. Climate Change will soon allow that second crop cycle. It's getting equatorical. point of fact. Japan Attacked the US. The US then declared war. Many think Japanese lives were saved by the internment camps. As the war progressed many felt Japanese citizens lives would have been at risk from people who hated them for the actions of their countrymen. It was a different time. We will never see internment camps again.

I want to see the awful people that sold off her family's land named, and made to pay for it. I don't like leaving comments that are too critical, but I find Lucas really underwhelming as a host. He doesn't seem to have much energy or passion, or he doesn't really communicate it well. And it always feels incredibly awkward when he sits down with people, like he doesn't know how to interact very well with them.

The Sho-Chiku-Bai is also very good. I steam it in a basket and make onigiri or eat it with braised chicken and sauce made with water, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, chili oil, and chili sauce like sriracha or Secret Aardvark Habanero. I braise the chicken and then thicken the sauce with corn starch to serve. I like to dip clumps of the rice into the sauce.

Great video friends! I love watching Lucas do just about anything: ) It would have been interesting to learn about the Japanese family and how they were impacted (if any) during the end of WWII at the time of Japanese internment camps. Were they allowed to keep their land and business? Very interesting nonetheless. Thanks very much!

White Nationalist here: I love this lady and her attitude, her family has really thrived through their work ethic and intelligence. The presenter wearing a 1775 Army hat is also a sign of why Eastern Asians are a valuable addition to this country. These are the immigrants that we need.

Its very disingenuous to say that America declared war on Japan in 1941. The Japanese government and its army leveled a terrorist attack against America in 1941. Are you forgetting Pearl Harbor? It is more accurate to say that Japan declared war on America on December 7, 1941.

Wow. they had all their land stolen from them. Im glad they got the symbolic settlement but its still really unbelievable that this happened and that we as fellow americans let that happen to them. I wasnt even born then but am embarrassed this happened. Its such a shame.

How the country of liberty deprive the liberty of hardworking and nice people? Hopefully the war ended before the gas follow internment camps. Koda family is very respecful to thrive against the difficulties set by a nation which confiscate proprerty like its opposite would do.

Im just sayin, a big motivator for the internment camps was also because we were openly attacked by the Japanese via pearl harbor. I understand the thought process behind the camps, but in no way am i saying it was right.
