Trump express how there should a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States in response to the ISIS incidents and terrorist activities like that of 9/11. From what I got from the podcast, the main purpose was to emphasize how Americans could live without a specific race like Muslim by depending on conservatives and liberals. From what I am getting, the most important aspect of viewpoints presented by the speakers was that adding more tolerance is not the best solution to…

these courses, we learned about radical thinkers and doers and people who decided to revolt against the status quo. Both of these courses are fine for students to learn, it’s fine for us to learn about Napoleon and the American Revolution, so what makes the history of Latin American different? Is it because we live in such an Eurocentric America, that it’s okay for us to learn the ideas of radicals so long as they fit the Arian role? This was something that wasn’t discussed in the film, but this…

prisoners of war in Japan and Japanese- American citizens in the United States during WWII undergo efforts to make them “invisible”. Laura Hillenbrand’s Unbroken hero, Louie Zamperini, like so many other POW’S is imprisoned, beaten, and denied basic human right in POW camps throughout Japan. Miné Okubo, a U.S. citizen by birth, is removed from society and interned in a “protective custody” camp for Japanese-American citizens. She is one of the many Japanese- Americans who were interned for the…

her something about the Americans. In the story, her idea of what the camps meant and what they were intended for changes as she gets older and learns the actuality of the impact it had on her life, and her personality growing up. Before living in Manzanar, Jeanne lived in Long Beach, with her three older brothers, Kiyo, Bill, and Woody, her parents, and her brothers’ wife, Chizu. Jeanne’s role there was just to be a child, and sometimes, a “woman”. After the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor, her…

Manzanar, Jeanne’s life became a constant struggle between trying to fit in with society around her and trying to please her family by maintaining her Japanese heritage. It seems like everything she did, her father would scold her for, saying it was unbecoming of her. He argued that, “if you put a sack over her face you couldn’t tell she was Japanese,” (Houston, 126). Jeanne constantly felt like she had to try harder and go above and beyond everyone else just to be accepted. When she was…

bombing of Pearl Harbor, Japans were discriminated against and sent away to internment camps. They wanted Americans to treat them equally, and they wanted to prove their loyalty to the country. "We feel we represent majority Nisei sentiment when we say that whatever we do, we do in absolute loyalty to the United States. There are not so much words. We see our objective clearly- Defeat Japan!" (Inada, 20) Japanese-Americans were loyal to America, and they had nothing to with the attack. They were…

you gone through things you thought were harsh to you at the moment ? When in reality you do not exactly know what harsh is unless you were a Japanese during WWII. Take a look, more of a consideration the way the U.S. made the japanese ethnicity/ancestry feel. For a while we have been reading many articles about what happened in the internments and how japanese felt and many of them have themes that they share. The texts Farewell to Manzanar, “Why Children Did Not Knock At My Door Halloween This…

phrase that says, “You don’t know what you have until it’s gone.” This is exactly how Anne Frank felt when she had to leave her home and move into the Annex. Furthermore, it shows how the children in Dear Miss Breed felt when they were put into the internment camps. One of the children in Dear Miss Breed, Louise Ogawa, was more appreciative of her surroundings after she considered how much she had before she was brought to the camps. She wrote to Miss Clara Breed, “This camp is so far away from…
