I have never heard of this in my life.
WHY.
I read about this in History of California class last semester. They also had a Filipino Repatriation Program where the U.S. government gave Filipino-Americans the choice to stay in America or get paid thousands of dollars to return to the Philippines and not be allowed to go back to America as a resident. Being that Japan invaded and colonized the Philippines after Pearl Harbor, repatriated Filipino-Americans were basically being sent into a war zone.
Never heard of this and I’m disgusted.
