Selling Japanese American History

A rare collection of arts and crafts made by Japanese Americans who forced into internment camps were supposed to be auctioned off on Friday. Many Japanese Americans found out about and began protesting about it. Those who were interned in the past and some of their families were outraged by this and threatened a lawsuit if the items were auctioned off. There were 450 items that got taken out of the auction and they ranged from handmade crafts to water color paintings. They don't believe their history should be sold. I don't believe their history should be sold either.
