This show has been getting a lot of new popularity lately because of the announcements of a third show, the live action show adaptation of the original, and at least one animated movie that takes place after the og show is over. I would suggest you watch all three seasons of ATLA before watching Korra and the Live action adaptation if those interest you. Season 1 of the live action does line up with the og season 1, but since they were banking on returning fans, there are actually season 2 and 3 spoilers in the live action version of season 1.

Very important to watch the original first!

Ik a lot of people say the live action version was pretty good but I am not a fan. It doesn’t capture the essence of the original well in my opinion. I hate what they did to Bumi.

@th3grav3mak3rgaming8 I have 0 interest in watching the live action adaptation. I heard a lot about the changes made and decided it wasn't worth my time. That being said, I don't ever want to be the kind of person that tells people they can't/shouldn't watch something that interests them even if I don't personally care for it.

BTW, next episode is a two parter, so, if possible, I recommend doing episodes 7 and 8 in the same video.

For this episode, _Imprisoned_ , I always like to give some context, being as I am from a country which has an established, strongly present, and very well known history with this kind of stuff. I hope you don't mind, but it's going to be a bit of a long one. During the Nazi occupation of Europe, virtually all occupied countries had their own offshoot of the Nazi Party, which -governed- sorry, ruled, the occupied nation on the German Nazi Party's behalf. (I learned relatively recently that Poland was pretty much the sole exception to this, as they were ruled directly by the NSDAP, the National-Sozialistische Deutsche Arbeiter Partei, aka the German Nazi Party ["National-Sozialism" being where the abbreviation "Nazi"/"Nazism" comes from; and "Deutsch" being German, for, well........ "German"]). My country of the Netherlands, for example, was under German occupation ruled by the NSB, the "Nationaal-Socialistische Bond". Now, during the occupation, all occupied countries would see the emergence of people who were not in fact directly associated with the local/national Nazi Party, but who would still do anything and everything to aid the Nazis in whatever way the Nazis desired. This to include betraying their own countrymen to the Nazis, and even betraying those countrymen who had helped, or even saved, such people in the past. It is widely believed that Anne Frank was betrayed by just such a person, leading to her being shipped off by train to the Concentration Camps and her eventual death at just age 15. Why they did these things, we can only speculate. Maybe it's because they thought the Nazis would reward them in some way, or maybe they were scared of being targeted (and potentially ending up on one of "those" trains) themselves. At any rate, the countries of Europe called these people by a French word: collaborateurs. It means exactly what a native English speaker would guess it means. The point being: the old man from _Imprisoned_ is a textbook collaborateur. And I do mean: *_textbook_* . As in: if there was a textbook about the role of collaborateurs in WWII, it would be liable to have a picture of this old guy next to it, along with a description of what he did to Haru. Another interesting aspect is why the Fire Nation cracked down so ruthlessly on Earthbending. One obvious reason is the threat posed by the Earthbenders, and that is certainly part of it -- but I feel that there is more to it than that. All the way back in episode 1, you might recall that Katara and Sokka described Waterbending as such: "An ancient art, unique to our culture." And the Warden in this episode used these words to describe Earthbending: "employing that brutish savagery that passes for Bending among you people". I feel that, alongside the military threat or the threat of rebellion, the Fire Nation was also intending to eliminate Earthbending with the goal of eliminating the Earth Kingdom culture itself. Both because they view that culture as "savagery"; and also for the purposes of being better able to replace the resulting "culture void" with their own Fire Nation culture which they of course view as "superior". All of this is Fascism 101.

With respect to episode 6 “Imprisoned’ you may want to know that George Takei who plays SULU in the Original STAR Trek 1966-1968, the first 7 Star Trek Movies, the ancestor in Mulan, conventions and cameo appearances, is the actor who plays the voice of the Warden in the “Imprisoned” episode. This allowed George Takei to draw on his own experiences of Prison camp Wardens, given how WWII impacted his life. During WWII, when George Takei was ages 5 through 9, he and his family were forcibly put in a Japanese Internment Camp, in the United States, because the US Government was afraid of all Americans of Japanese Origin or Descent. He survived the 4 war years as a kid, in a US guarded prison camp, because President FDR thought any American who had any tie to Japan, or had Japanese Ancestry was a possible threat to the national security of the United States. George Takei in the 2010’s wrote the play Allegiance (and acted in it) as a way of documenting his experiences growing up in a prison camp, just because of his Japanese ancestry until WWII was over. Then he and his family members that survived, (some did not) were allowed to go back to their previous existence, if possible. Currently George Takei is alive, well, and 86 years old. Those that survived were granted US citizenship but the US government did not formally apologize to the survivors until August 10th 1988, when Ronald Reagan signed the Civil Liberties Act of 1988 (at least 40+) years after the events. The act granted each surviving internee $20,000 in compensation, which was equivalent to $43,000 in 2022. Payments began in 1990, only to those survivors currently Alive, at the time the redress checks were sent out. A total of 82,219 received redress checks. The legislation stated that government actions had been based on "race prejudice, war hysteria, and a failure of political leadership" as opposed to legitimate security reasons. According to Wikipedia, “The Civil Liberties Act of 1988, Restitution for World War II internment of Japanese-Americans and Aleuts, states that it is intended to: “…1 acknowledge the fundamental injustice of the evacuation, relocation, and internment of United States citizens and permanent resident aliens of Japanese ancestry during World War II; … 2 apologize on behalf of the people of the United States for the evacuation, relocation, and internment of such citizens and permanent resident aliens; …3 provide for a public education fund to finance efforts to inform the public about the internment of such individuals so as to prevent the recurrence of any similar event; …4 make restitution to those individuals of Japanese ancestry who were interned; …5 make restitution to Aleut residents of the Pribilof Islands and the Aleutian Islands west of Unimak Island, in settlement of United States obligations in equity and at law, for - injustices suffered and unreasonable hardships endured while those Aleut residents were under United States control during World War II; …6 personal property taken or destroyed by United States forces during World War II; community property, including community church property, taken or destroyed by United States forces during World War II; and traditional village lands on Attu Island not rehabilitated after World War II for Aleut occupation or other productive use; discourage the occurrence of similar injustices and violations of civil liberties in the future; and …7 make more credible and sincere any declaration of concern by the United States over violations of human rights committed by other nations.”
