Mark Ramseyer sparked a global outrage by rewriting a history that remains painful for many families today. Ramseyer wrote an article – "Contracting for Sex in the Pacific War " – about Korean comfort women that was criticized by individuals, organizations and groups around the world as factually inaccurate and misleading. His article suggested that these women were voluntarily contracted to participate in prostitution. This article caused an outpouring of anger among the Asian American and academic communities, and rightfully so.

Laurence Fox Vows to Protect Statues From Sadiq Khan’s ‘Nation Hating Cronies’
London mayoral candidate Laurence Fox has vowed to stand up to the Black Lives Matter-inspired attacks on British heritage being pushed forward by London Mayor Sadiq Khan and his group of “nation hating cronies”. The British actor and leader of the anti-woke Reclaim Party, who has been essentially blacklisted from the film and television industry for espousing his right-of-centre political beliefs, said that he will be running for mayor to end the draconian lockdowns, but also in order to stand up for free speech and British heritage. “Boris Johnson says ‘there’s nothing wrong with being woke ’. Keir Starmer takes the knee to a hard-left organisation that seeks to undermine of all the things we hold dear, our families, our shared language and heritage. Sadiq Khan and his nation-hating cronies have their jealous eyes on our statues and institutions ,” Fox wrote in The Telegraph . “Why are none of our politicians standing to defend us?

Meghan Angry Royals Didn’t Break 100 Years of Convention to Make Son a Prince Instead of Lord
Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, has revealed her rift with the British Royal Family stems in part from her frustration that they would not bend royal rules to make her son a prince against normal convention, claiming inaccurately that the title was his “birthright”. Conventions laid down over a century ago by the Queen’s grandfather, George V, stipulate that as a great-grandchild of the monarch and child of the second son of the heir to the throne, Archie has a right to father Prince Harry’s subsidiary title, which would make him Lord Archie, Earl of Dumbarton. In a tell-all interview with American talk show host Oprah Winfrey, however, former Suits starlet Meghan Markle strongly indicated that she did not think this prestigious title — which she and Prince Harry have declined to use — was good enough for her son. “How did they explain to you that your son, the great-grandson of the Queen, wasn’t going to be a prince?
