EP 63 - The History of The Japanese Internment Camps

Felipe and Butch are on a consistent focus on groups of people being rounded up and tossed into places against their will. The Japanese Internment Camps were no different and it happened in the US during WWII. The US government forcibly relocated and incarcerated approximately 120,000 Japanese and Japanese Americans in ten internment camps, primarily in the western interior, due to Executive Order 9066, a controversial measure based on wartime fears of espionage. The guys highlight the camps in California and give great detail as to the conditions Japanese and Japanese Americans went through.LINKSFelipe Esparza: @FelipeEsparzaComedian (IG) @FunnyFelipe (TT)Butch Escobar: @ButchEscobar(IG and TT Theme music (Intro and Outro) - by IkeReatorBeatzGet tickets to laugh with Felipe @ http://FelipesWorld.comFelipe Esparza is a comedian and actor, known for his stand-up specials, “They’re Not Gonna Laugh at You”, “Translate This”, and his latest dual-release on Netflix, “Bad Decisions/Malas Decisiones” (2 different performances in two languages), his recurring appearances on Netflix’s “Gentefied”, NBC’s “Superstore” and Adultswim’s “The Eric Andre Show”, as well as winning “Last Comic Standing” (2010), and his popular podcast called “What’s Up Fool?”.
