MSNBC#VelshiBannedBookClub: George Takei’s ‘They Called Us Enemy’By MSNBC.com
Susan Cohen

@georgetakei I realize that you & others like you are trying to be sensitive to Jews when you avoid the term "concentration camp. but the fact is, you & other Japanese Americans WERE put in CONCENTRATION camps. They were just not *extermination camps* (thank Heaven for small mercies). But, as a Jew, I WANT whatever gravitas the term "concentration camp" has to be given to what you all suffered, to make it that much clearer to people what racist horror it was.
