You mean when Japan bombed us

Mrs. B. G. Miller, a member of the Hollywood Protective Association, points to an anti-Japanese sign reading ‘removed Keep Moving - This is a White Man’s Neighborhood’, on her house on Tamarind Street, Hollywood, Los Angeles, May 1923. Other houses in the street have similar signs and are a response to Japanese Americans buying a property on the street in order to build a Japanese Presbyterian Church.

    Never said Japan was good and the U.S. was bad. You could look at any country throughout history and find issues, like the U.S. commiting genocide against the native people who were living there.

    The public school system in the U.S. relies heavily in books that are used in Texas. Texas buys a lot of books, book publishers aren’t going to supply a different book for every state, so when WW2 is taught, it’s taught as the Japanese just attacking the U.S. with no backstory. A lot of people go to public school, and don’t learn any additional history, and then as adults, still wrongly think Japan bombed the U.S. with no prior action from the U.S.
