Henry McLemore

Henry McLemore was a columnist who is mostly known for his work in spreading propaganda for the internment of Japanese in World War II. He is responsible for the quote, "I am for the immediate removal of every Japanese on the West Coast to a point deep in the interior. I don't mean a nice part of the interior either. Herd 'em up, pack 'em off and give 'em the inside room in the badlands... Personally, I hate the Japanese. And that goes for all of them."-Hearst newspapers 1942.[1]
