Uncelebrated History - Nazism in NA

Recommended Posts

I've always been a fan of history, especially history that isn't talked about as much. I've been hearing lots of reports that younger Americans as well Canadians don't know about concentration camps, let alone our facilities that were erected in Canada and America to contain Japanese civilians in World War 2, as well during World War 1, the Ukrainian peoples internment centres. It's really scary to think that such hate has been forgotten and that such facilities were erected on such land. The point of this post is to show Nazism in NA during the 1930's and how prevalent it was in our history here at home, and how much we've censored history, I hope this isn't all common knowledge, but I assume a lot of it is. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/acts-of-faith/wp/2018/04/12/two-thirds-of-millennials-dont-know-what-auschwitz-is-according-to-study-of-fading-holocaust-knowledge/?noredirect=on&utm_term=.b2ce7670883f

Even after WW2 nazism and anti-semitism didn't just go away. It bled into other countries.

Was kinda bored and have genuinely been curious as to if people are forgetting what shouldn't be forgotten. Lest we forget.
Also I wanted to add this in. https://www.theatlantic.com/photo/2017/06/american-nazis-in-the-1930sthe-german-american-bund/529185/
