Counting two months of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, US President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed Executive Order 9066 asked all Americans to evacuate the western coast of Japan. This led to the transfer of nearly 120,000 people, many of them American citizens, to one of 10 scattered throughout the country, and concentration camps. The traditional family structure within the camp has been turned, where she was to allow children born in the United States alone to the centers of power. Has allowed some Japanese citizens to return America to the beginning of the west coast in 1945, and closed last camp in March 1946.

One of the problems Asian American communities faced during World War 2 is concentrations camps. Since the United States went to war all Japanese, Germans, and Italians were seen as enemies so, they were put in camps because the U.S did not did not trust them. Also it was a way to have control over them having them in camps. Over five thousand Japanese were detained and were intern in camps in Mexico, Montana, South Dakota, Los Angeles, and the Bay Area. There were ten more relocations camps located in California, Arizona, Idaho, Wyoming, Utah, and Arkansas.

Imagine your government blaming you for the actions of the race you come from and them ultimately imprisoning you with no remorse. During WWII this situation happened to innocent Japanese Americans out of fear and prejudice. Americans put these innocent citizens in internment camps without solid evidence of them being spies and traitors.By the US acting on fear and prejudice we have damaged and harmed innocent Japanese Americans going against what America stands for and what is right.

The topic that has been chosen for the term paper in the pro seminar course is Japanese Internment Camps. During World War II, a significant number of American citizens of Japanese descent were forced into American internment camps, strictly because of their ethnic background. Having committed no crime, the Japanese forced into the internment camps were treated similarly to that of Japanese prisoners of war that had been captured by the Allies. The forced relocation and eventual internment of Japanese Americans was brought about by the event that occurred on December 7, 1941, the attack on Pearl Harbor. December 7, 1941 began as any typical Sunday on the Hawaiian Islands. Then at 7:55 am, the fateful Sunday on the island of Oahu would be forever remembered in the history books. At 7:55 am, three hundred and fifty three Japanese planes that were launched from Japan’s six biggest and best aircraft carriers, located only two hundred miles off the coast of the Hawaiian Islands, bombed the U.S. Naval Base. The attack by the Japanese was a complete surprise to everyone, and as a result American casualties were heavy. After the attack, fifteen American ships had been sunk including four battleships. In addition, one American ship was capsized, and one had run aground. Also, one hundred and eighty eight American planes were destroyed, and nearly two thousand four hundred men lost their lives. Prior to September 11, 2001, the attack on Pearl Harbor was the worst attack on U.S. soil

It all started in The United States, during World War 2. Over 127,000 United States citizens were imprisoned. There Only Crime was, being of Japanese ancestry. This is known as a Japanese—American Internment Camp. Where they kept many in stables and abandon horse tracks, because they kept taking more and more people. This Generation should never forget about this, for many reasons. The main reason is because it shows us how much freedom we have today. For example those 127,000 were kept because they were suspected of remaining loyal to their ancestral land. The honest truth is 90% of those people never went to japan. So they were free Americans, and still had taken and imprisoned. Just to show how the world is today. We should never take anything granted. So many lives were lost because of false discrimination.

In the immediate aftermath of Pearl Harbor, President Roosevelt issued executive order 9066; resulting in the relocation of Japanese Americans. This order authorized the evacuation of all people that deemed a threat to security, and the force removal and internment during World War Two of approximately 110,000 Japanese Americans living on the Pacific coast. Japanese Americans suffered severe violations of their civil liberties; there was no line drawn between the complex issues of individual rights vs. the demand of national security. Following the bombing of Pearl Harbor on Dec 7 1941, Americans reacted with fear and hostility towards those of Japanese descent living in the U.S. Some say these harsh effects Japanese face was because they

During World War II the atrocities committed by the Nazis were so violent, and so reprehensible that Germany is still trying to make amends for them to this very day. I decided to do my final paper on just one specific group of people terrorized by the Nazis in their concentration camps, American GI’s. These GI’s were sent to a camp known as Buchenwald. The off shoot of Buchenwald was known as Berga. Berga is a town in the Grietz district in Thuringia, Germany. Although, not initially used as a concentration camp, Berga would become one of Hitler’s most secretive and most infamous concentration camps during the war.

World war II was massive, bloody, and partially unexpected. When the policy of appeasement failed most european countries were left in a tight spot. But america remained neutral. One of Washington’s messages on his farewell address was to remain neutral, and we did. At least, until japan attacked pearl harbor, and germany and italy declared war on us. This caused massive panic in the U.S.. It wasn't until three japanese-american hostilly defended a fallen japanese pilot when Franklin Roosevelt wanted to take action against japanese-americans. He passed executive order 9066 which forced japanese americans into crowded, dirty camps. FDR’s decision to pass executive order 9066 was heavily unjustified and was a bad idea overall.

All of us have formed habits in our daily life. Even though some of these habits only exist in our subconscious and we cannot actually make sure whether they are real or only the conjectures. But it is undoubted that all of our behaviors are influenced by our desires on specific objectives. In the book, the power of habit, Charles Duhigg explained the definition of a habit as an effort-saving instinct. “When a habit emerges, the brain stops fully participating in decision making” (20). To support his opinions on habits, he introduced the three-step model of a habit loop, the theory of golden rule of habit, and the role of a craving brain and belief in the process of a habit changing.

After the attack on the Pearl Harbor in 1941, a surprise military strike by the Japanese Navy air service, United States was thrilled and it provoked World War II.

This resulted over 127,000 people of Japanese descent relocate across the country in the Japanese Internment camps. Many of them were American Citizens but their crime was being of Japanese ancestry. They were forced to evacuate their homes and leave their jobs and in some cases family members were separated and put into different internment camps. There were ten internment camps were placed in “California, Idaho, Utah, Arizona, Wyoming, Colorado, and Arkansas”(History.com). However, until the camps were fully build, the Japanese people were held in temporary centers. In addition, almost two-thirds of the interns were Japanese Americans born in the United States and It made no difference that many of them had never even been to Japan. Also, Japanese-American veterans of World War I were forced to leave their homes and relocate in the internment camps. Japanese families in internment camps dined together, children were expected to attend school, and adults had the option of working for earning $5 per day. The United States government hoped that the internment camps could make it self-sufficient by farming to produce food.
