Internment of Japanese Americans What kind of hardships did WWII create for Americans at home?

Concerns About Disloyalty at the Beginning of WWII Who? ◦ People of German or Italian ancestry Why? ◦ Afraid they will work with the enemy and cause a national security risk Infer Americans may have been scared that Germans and Italians were a threat to the United States because…

After the Attack on Pearl Harbor President Roosevelt signed proclamations declaring all German, Italian, and Japanese nationals (non-U.S. citizens) “enemy aliens.” All “enemy aliens” had to… ◦ Register with the government and carry identification cards. ◦ Turn in all firearms(guns), cameras, and shortwave radios. Anything that could be used to communicate with the enemy. ◦ Needed a travel permit to go more than 5 miles from their home.

Make a Connection The requirements of “enemy aliens” during WWII reminds me of… I wonder…

Discrimination Against Japanese Americans Japanese Americans were a smaller group with less political power than the Italians and Germans. Why? ◦ Nonwhite, non-European ancestry ◦ Had not assimilated into American culture as well as other immigrant groups. Kept the culture/beliefs/values from their home country. ◦ Lived mainly on the West Coast where fear of a Japanese invasion was strongest.

Roosevelt Removes Japanese Americans Internment Camps: A center for confining people who are considered a threat to national safety/security (flashcard)

Executive Order 9066 President Roosevelt creates large military zones to house current U.S. residents considered to be a threat to national security. March 1942, military orders mass evacuation of Japanese from Pacific Coast (closest to Japan)

Life in Internment Camps Forced to sell possessions and homes within a few weeks. In desert regions away from any towns/cities. Rows of barracks with common bathing and dining areas. High barbed wire fences Machine gun towers to prevent escape Internees created libraries, schools, and newspapers to make life more bearable.

Reflect I think living in an interment camp would be… I think the Japanese Americans must have felt… I wonder…

Some Relief Government officials allowed 10,000 farm workers and 4,300 college students leave camps. 1943: thousands of young Japanese men allowed to leave to join the army. 1944: People remaining in camps allowed to leave.
