Amusing segment from Steven Okazaki's documentary "White Light/Black Rain: The Destruction of Hiroshima and Nagasaki."

Also a sobering segment. If these people are clueless about what happened in Hiroshima on August 1945, then they are surely clueless about Japanese war atrocities...

  • You guys are all dumb. American society is guilty of the same thing. We talk about our high points but avoid our low points. For instance, we rarely discuss genocide committed against Native Americans, extermination orders issued against religious groups (Mormons, for example), slave-holding forefathers, and the list goes on and on. You don't even know your own history, so what gives you the right to criticize Japan?

  • i'd like to think that they only showed the dumb ones, and that there were plenty of ones who knew, that or Japan did a hell of a job to make people forget.

  • American war criminals should have been executed for their genocide of the japanese people

  • Im sorry, i should rephrase that: "... much about the DATE of pearl harbor."

  • Reminds me of how my generation doesn't know much about pearl harbor, or maybe that's just me.

  • this absolutely insane... 

  • i guarantee you that in about 60 years kids aren't going to remember 9-11 either....

  • I don't know. In my country, I never learned about the world war II in school as well, but that doesn't mean I won't have the media,internet and people to learn from. This's not just history. I would like to believe that these people were an exception of a large and informative community.

  • OH SHIT AFRIRAMPO

  • @o0Marijne0o i live here in japan you will actually be surprise.... japan did a really great job in covering it up, in school they dont teach any of that...really you have to go to college to learn about that 

  • @kydrice The term "concentration camp" doesn't imply genocide, it just means it was basically a prison camp. Interment Camps and Concentration Camps are more or less the same thing. The Nazi "concentration camp" in Auschwitz was actually an Extermination Camp, so to say the U.S. had a Concentration camp would carry or seem to imply the similar connotations.

    They also would refer to them as Resettlement Camps or just Detention Camps.
