Letter: So little progress

Today, I completed a course on the internment of Japanese and Aleut residents of the U.S. at the beginning of World War II. Today’s lecture was on the internment camps for these families. I suddenly realized that as a nation, we have not progressed much in the past 77 years. Now we are interning Hispanic refugees at our southern border. At least in 1942, we kept families together. So sad for the U.S.
