In the story " Response to Executive order 9066 " Dwight Okita writes about a fourteen year old girl who goes to school during a war. this girl has a bestfriend who she's been bestfriends with for a while now. Like any other day the girl goes to school and talks to her friend. One day she goes to school and her friend is sitting on the other side of the room basically teasing her saying "giving secrets away to the Enemy, Why can’t you keep your big mouth shut?” The reason for that is because the fourteen year old girl is a different race from her friend.

In the story " mericans " Sandra Cisneros writes about a
family who in the beginning the grandma is praying for her family. The grandma holds the rosary while saying multiple prayers. Her family is told to stay in the church until she returns. While they are in the church many people are entering going to pray too. People are entering with pillows to kneel. Women are walking in with shawls covering themselves. The family is now outside the kids are playing running in circles. When one of the boys yell Virgin’s birthday. I want to be a flying feather dancer too, but when he circles past me he shouts, “I’m a B-Fifty-two bomber, you’re a German,” The sister says that the boy no longer makes fun of her by saying " like a girl."
I think there is a lot of similarities and differences between the story's. In the first story I feel like the story's are telling us the readers what people had to go through during that time. When America was at war you are obviously going to get people who are with there country. As kids there is no escaping the reality of war. The differences that I noticed that in the first story it was more of a religious or ethnicity problem. Where as the second story is more of a unavoidable problem.
