Ronald And Kevin Gover Apology Analysis

“Ronald and Kevin Gover Apology”

In “Remarks on signing the bills providing Restitution for the Wartime Internment of Japanese American Civilians” by President Ronald Regan and “An Apology” by Kevin Gover the speakers both, issue apologies for the past wrong doing by the United States.

Ronald Regan expanded his apology with signing the bill by providing funds for members of the Aleut community who were evacuated from the Aleutian and Pribilof islands after a Japanese attack in 1942. Gover must first reconcile the facts that the work of the agency has at various times profoundly harmed the communities it was meant to serve. In paragraph 3 the Congressman’s stated “My own family was sent to Santa Anita Racetrack. We showered in the horse

paddocks. Some family lived in converted stables, others in hastily thrown together barracks. We were then moved to Heart Mountain, Wyoming, where our entirely family lived in one small room of a rude tar paper barrack.”
Then in Paragraph 4 Stated “The legislation that I am about to sign provides for a restitution payment to each of 60,000 surviving Japanese Americans of the 120,000 who were relocated or detained.” Therefore we admit a wrong; we reaffirm our commitment as a nation to equal justice under the law.
Finally President Ronald Regan and Gover apologies to the community for the past wrong United States and the Office of Indians Affairs did.
