Quotes by George Takei  (?)

“Years later, the trauma of those experiences continued to haunt me. Most Japanese Americans from my parents' generation didn't like to talk about the internment with their children. As with many traumatic experiences, they were anguished by their memories and haunted by shame for something that wasn't their fault. Shame is a cruel thing. It should rest on the perpetrators but they don't carry it the way the victims do.”
George Takei, They Called Us Enemy

“Shame is a cruel thing. It should rest on the perpetrators but they don't carry it the way the victims do.”

tags: shame

“That remains part of the problem—that we don't know the unpleasant aspects of American history...and therefore we don't learn the lesson those chapters have to teach us. So we repeat them over and over again.”
George Takei, They Called Us Enemy
