Today we talk about the clandestine removal of a monument memorializing a shooting victim at the Topaz Japanese Internment Camp. The memorial was reportedly removed at the behest of the Topaz Museum, the non-for-profit that is supposed to be preserving the history and integrity of the internment camp. The Topaz Museum claims they removed the monument, without notifying survivors and Descendents, or anyone really because they needed to keep it safe from vandals. We talk about why that explanation doesn't seem to fit with the situation or the treatment of the monument post removal.
