Definitely one of the most shameful times in American history and not something that should be forgotten.

Nice quiz!

Interesting quiz! P.S. Should be "forced" in the final clue.

US of A, the country of freedom, the land of the free... it depends for whom.

Canada is not really better on the topic either.
