American Concentration Camps in the 1920s

It’s important to know your American History. It’s not just Black History or white History - it’s all of our collective history that makes us who we are as a nation. I never knew these existed. Mind you this was 100 years ago.

A case could be made that Native American "reservations" today are nothing more than concentration camps.

You didn't know OP??? I'm Australian and I knew. It was 83 years ago.

R3 you’re thinking of something different. This was in Louisiana over 100 years ago when black bales were forced into labor campers to rebuild the city after a flood. They were put in camps and threatened with death if they left.
