The movie is not racist. The racists are the idiots who were pushing to put this event on in San Pedro. Why in hell put this event on in that of all places?
Are we just trying to inflame people?
You guys are kinda short sighted sometimes.
Freepers are great at reacting. But reaction is easy when it is passionate.
The mark of real leadership is when one attempts to comprehend facts first. San Pedro had tens of thousands of citizens tossed out of homes. Women and children were living in fields because of the illegal activity of the FDR regime.

San Pedro is part of the City of Los Angeles; thousands of JA's from LA were interned. Does that mean the film can't be shown in Los Angeles? To equate JA's with the Empire of Japan's horrible attack on Pearl is to fall into the same intellectual trap that created E.O. 1066 in the first place. Sheesh. The "Go For Broke" boys would have a field day with you.

and did you forget that southern california was shelled by a japanese mini sub!! Yes the internment was bad. But we were at war, and wvery one was awaiting the invasion. On ya I was born and raised in LA and my parents were born in LA too. I heard all about the blackouts etc..
