I think Japan is the greatest and most amazing culture because. They keep up with traditions and they always put so much detail into everything they do. Japan is also very clean and polite. If you go to a subway you will usually se trash somewhere and people all crowding around the door to push in to get a seat and your being pushed around and stuff like that. But in Japan people line up nice and orderly and you don’t really see trash Japan is very clean you will barely see trash on the street. Japanese people will also step out of the way to let people off the subway so they can get off.
Japan is also very conservative. You will rarely see a dryer because they dry their clothing outside all year long but in the winter some people might bring them

They have a small kitchen and then there's the bathroom and then there's the living room which acts as a bedroom. This room is filled with tatami mats and this is where you would have company and where you would sleep. You would usually either sleep on a cot or mat which then you can put away and it won't take up much space.. But you could also buy a bed and never haft to put it away. When you go into a house you haft to take off your shoes and then put on house slippers. This is also true about some restaurants that have a tatami floor. They will usually have slippers there for you to put on. When you go to the doctors they will sometimes have a slipper/shoe cleaner to clean them with UV rays.
In Japan people feel safe because the crime rate is so low. And in the documentary "A Life in Japan" people talk about how safe they feel and how they leave their bike unlocked and if they forget their valuables and they go back to get them there still there. This does not mean nothing gets stolen but it's less likely. If you get lost or confused in Japan people will try to help you and if they can't they will try to find a way to help

    Japanese-Americans were interned during World War II because after the bombing at Pearl Harbor in 1941, the majority of Americans used their fear of another Japanese attack to display an extreme level of prejudice. On February 19, 1942, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed and issued Executive Order 9066. This order called for the clearing and deportation of all Japanese Americans from military areas. According to Black, it was the Japanese citizens’ responsibility to follow the exclusion order since it would almost guarantee the safety of those who were not Japanese. Black then continues to brush off the accusation that Korematsu’s case makes him the victim of racial prejudice and claims it was solely based on the fact that the United States was at war with Japan, and that they did not want to overlook anything, or anyone, that might jeopardize the nation’s security (Document C).…

    People fear what they don’t understand and this fear can lead to an intense hatred that can convince others to believe them. During World War II many people began to believe the wartime propaganda convincing themselves that the Japanese were animals instead of people. The American people began to believe the Japanese race was the “enemy” instead of the Axis powers. They had even convinced our own government to imprison its own citizens because of their race instead of their ideals. The internment of Japanese Americans encouraged racism in the U.S. because the wartime hysteria influenced the American people to think that the Japanese were the “enemy” and the government imprisoned them even though they were innocent.…

    America entered World War II, their primary goal - to defeat Japan; however, as America fought against the Japanese it became clear that Japanese Americans were affected. President Roosevelt approved several orders and committees that specifically targeted Japanese Americans on the West Coast, while war propaganda was created to instill fear and hatred of the Japanese in the American people. World War II not only exacerbated the racial tension within the American people, but also excused the racist actions taken by the American government against the Japanese Americans, as the Americans then prided themselves for fighting in the “good war”. During the 1930s America began to doubt their involvement in the first World War, instead they believed…

    On the third of June, Japanese planes attacked Dutch Harbor, Fort Glenns, and Mears in the Aleutians. Along with the attack on Australia, this was meant to be an attack that distracted and diverted the American fleet; however, due to the intelligence, the USN knew Midway was the main objective and was not dissuaded in any way. Even though the attack damaged Dutch Harbor severely, in the end, it hurt Japan far more than helping due to the loss of a slightly damaged Zero, which was recovered by American ground forces. This recovery led to the reveal of the weaknesses of the Zero, culminating in the previously unbeatable plane’s defeat. Along with the attack on the Aleutians, American planes took off in search of the enemy off of Midway on June…

    On December 7th, 1941, Pearl Harbor was attacked by the Japanese. On that catastrophic day thousands of unaware and unarmed Americans died. This attack on Pearl Harbor brought the U.S. to their breaking point and immediately brought us into the Second World War. The events leading up to this horrific event are not always as cut and dry as one might think, and the question of whether or not the attack on Pearl Harbor could have been prevented is something that every American should ponder. Long before the attack on Pearl Harbor tensions between the United States and Japan had been escalating for years.…

    Along with being told that they only had a certain amount of days to move out of their homes, Japanese Americans were forced to move out of their homes. Days after the attack on Pearl Harbor signs were posted that the Japanese Americans were to only pack what they can carry and get rid of the rest of their belongings, then they would move to camps under government surveillance. This came as a shock to a lot of Japanese Americans, they did not expect the United States to question their loyalty. Selling the remainder of their items that they could not carry proved to be difficult. Buyers offered the lowest amount of money they could, while the Japanese Americans wanted much more cash for the things that was valuable in their eyes.…

    Throughout history, Asian women have been made into sinister, sexual beings. A long history of Asian women being degraded and viewed as nothing but sex workers, has led to them being viewed in an extremely hypersexualized light. In recent years, many people have become more aware of this issue, and it has become topic of debate. Many believe that allowing Asian women to act out their sexuality in ways that are reflective of racialized sexuality is harmful because it allows said stereotypes to continue. Others believe that that point of view is limiting and harmful to Asian female sexuality.…
