Native American, once called Indians were reassigned to a reservation. Slaves, once controlled on a reservation. Many Jews placed within a concentration camp during World War II. In America, was Asian American assigned to some too. But the question remain. Where have they been? To state, they been mistreated by anyone's hands. They have suffer less. But complains more. And for what? Because they don't control things like once before. When have they ever had to enter through the back door. Or refused service at the dining room counter. While they complain about rights being stepped upon. When we aware those facts are simple case of pure fiction. Those that been treated wrongly. Have in most ways been more kinder. Where in other countries? Can you witness Americans soldiers seated with the Nazis? But your own soldiers treated wrongly. They fought them just as bravely. But because of color refused service at the same business. Oh, I must ask? Where have they been? What use to be great in their youth? Seem only great because they won't address the wrong. Some say, that just was the time they were living in. What they must face? Is those golden days of injustice doesn't exist anymore. That they must face society is adjusting to facts. Even if they don't. And as things change. They must ask themselves. Where have they been?
