MikeDunnAuthor<p>Today in Labor History May 2, 1945: The Nisei 522nd Field Artillery Battalion halted a death march from Dachau to Austria. As a result, the Japanese-American fighting unit saved hundreds of lives. Yet, even while they fought fascists in Europe, many had families in concentration camps within the U.S.</p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/workingclass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>workingclass</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LaborHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LaborHistory</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/nazis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nazis</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/concentrationcamp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>concentrationcamp</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/japanese" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>japanese</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/racism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>racism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/dachau" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dachau</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/japaneseinternment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>japaneseinternment</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/WorldWarTwo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WorldWarTwo</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fascism</span></a></p>

Chris Alemany🇺🇦🇨🇦🇪🇸<p>I have a recurring annual calendar appointment for March 16. Today is the 102nd anniversary of Comox-Alberni MP A.W. Neill's first speech in his 21 year career in the House of Commons (1921-45) where he called for a "white British Columbia”.</p><p>Neill was a white supremacist, anti-Asian racist, and one of the loudest voices for Japanese Internment. He was also an Indian Agent dealing with First Nations and Residential Schools on Vancouver Island's West Coast.</p><p>In 2021 his name was removed from a local school but he remains honoured with a street name.</p><p>I will continue reminding people of this until that honour is removed.</p><p>(A full report about him starts on page 82 of the City of Port Alberni Agenda from January 23, 2017)<br><a href="https://www.portalberni.ca/sites/default/files/council_mtg/Jan23_Updated_opt_tf.pdf" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">portalberni.ca/sites/default/f</span><span class="invisible">iles/council_mtg/Jan23_Updated_opt_tf.pdf</span></a><br><a href="https://mstdn.chrisalemany.ca/tags/PortAlberni" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PortAlberni</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.chrisalemany.ca/tags/ResidentialSchools" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ResidentialSchools</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.chrisalemany.ca/tags/Canada" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Canada</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.chrisalemany.ca/tags/Tofino" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Tofino</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.chrisalemany.ca/tags/Ucluelet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Ucluelet</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.chrisalemany.ca/tags/Ahousaht" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Ahousaht</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.chrisalemany.ca/tags/Tseshaht" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Tseshaht</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.chrisalemany.ca/tags/Nuuchanulth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Nuuchanulth</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.chrisalemany.ca/tags/JapaneseInternment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>JapaneseInternment</span></a></p>

Mark Wyner Won’t Comply :vm:<p>Kishi Bashi’s record “Music from the Song Film: Omoiyari” was on my best of 2023 list. It’s truly a gem.

Chris Alemany🇺🇦🇨🇦🇪🇸<p>I hate my morbid curiosity into the incredible racism of a former Alberni MP, AW Neill. I was looking for a quote from him that I couldn't remember exactly. But I thought it had the word "yellow”. THIS is your CONTENT WARNING. </p><p>I am going to reproduce quotes from the Hansard of the House of Commons of Canada. It should not be hidden.</p><p>July 11, 1924 Alan Webster (AW) Neill “Progressive”:</p><p>"If you look at the issue a little further it means more than that. Once [we] let the North American continent be controlled or dominated as are the Hawaiian islands where inside of five years the orientals will be in a majority; go into the question further still and what does it mean? The dominance of the white races over the brown, black and yellow races of the world will be lost.”<br>(<a href="https://www.lipad.ca/search/?q=Yellow&amp;pol=Neill&amp;par=&amp;sd_year=1901&amp;sd_month=1&amp;sd_day=1&amp;ed_year=2019&amp;ed_month=10&amp;ed_day=18" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">lipad.ca/search/?q=Yellow&amp;pol=</span><span class="invisible">Neill&amp;par=&amp;sd_year=1901&amp;sd_month=1&amp;sd_day=1&amp;ed_year=2019&amp;ed_month=10&amp;ed_day=18</span></a>)</p><p>Or August 12, 1944:<br>"What keeps the population of India, with its teeming millions, under the control of a handful of men, some of them no more than lads just out of Eton?

On the basis of that theory we are going to start clusters, centres, cancers if you like, of this alien pagan race in every province, all reaching out and spreading out like some evil pool of poison in the province, and by and by they would unite.”<br>(<a href="https://www.lipad.ca/full/permalink/1344820/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">lipad.ca/full/permalink/134482</span><span class="invisible">0/</span></a>)</p><p>This man was elected to “serve” my riding in Parliament 5 consecutive times for a period of 24 years, 1921-1945.

Chris Alemany🇺🇦🇨🇦🇪🇸<p>Today I remember that because of the inexcusable act of a government thousands of miles away, good citizens were removed from their homes, their belongings and lands sold, they and their families packed into rail cars and shipped away to camps. Many did hard labour. All were deprived of dignity and freedom. Local politicians who championed it, benefited from it for decades.</p><p>Germany?</p><p>No. Canada and the USA imposing Japanese Internment. After the war, many were forced to go to Japan, even if they were not born there or never wanted to return.</p><p>War is injustice, pain, racism, bigotry, and suffering.
