Attended an event today around the 75th anniversary of the internment of Japanese Canadians during WWII (at my institution, Uni of British Columbia). Panel was about law and exclusion.
A panelist said once you reach the point of talking about security vs rights (to privacy, freedom, etc), you’re usually talking about “our” security vs “their” rights. And at that point, you’ve already lost something important.
This struck me & am still reflecting on it. We are there. What all have we lost?
