A Brief Note On Discrimination Against The Issei And The Nesei

How would you feel if one day people said you couldn’t live where you had lived for many years because of your race? Or religion? In 1942 that’s exactly what happened to the Japanese that lived in California. They were vacated from their homes because the US saw all Japanese as a threat.
Position: I fully believe that the government, specifically FDR, is bias toward the innocent Japanese.

I don’t know why I am detained…”
In the Japanese American Creed of the Japanese American Citizens League (J.A.C.L.), they stated that they believed in America and she believed in them, and because they have received innumerable benefits from her, they pledged themselves to do her honor to her at all times and in all places…to defend her against all her enemies, foreign and domestic.
