“Words like ‘freedom,’ ‘justice,’ ‘democracy’ are not
common concepts; on the contrary, they are rare. People are not born knowing what these are. It takes enormous and, above all, individual effort to arrive at the respect for other people that these words imply.”

The Supreme Court did this. Monstrous. Blood on their robes.
Breaking news: Federal immigration officers may deport immigrants with as little as six hours’ notice to countries other than their own, even without assurances that the arrivals will be safe from persecution or torture, a top official said.

Today we honor Fred T. Korematsu.
During WWII, the U.S. gov’t forcibly incarcerated 120,000 people of Japanese ancestry (many U.S. citizens). Fred defied the gov’t’s orders & refused to report to the camps. He challenged the incarceration’s constitutionality & lost before SCOTUS in 1944. 1/2
