For example, Italy, Germany, Japan. Once registered, there was a Certificate of Identification for Aliens of Enemy Nationality (Staff, 2009). This was said to be a follow up of the Alien Registration Act of 1940 (Staff, 2009). We will talk about executive order,…

explored through visual World War II propaganda. Often, Americans would be portrayed as idiotic and careless while the Japanese soldiers would be strong, highlighted with astonishing qualities, and smart when compared to the American idiot portrayed. This was all in an effort to dehumanize Americans while portraying pride in a Japanese nationalist mindset. “The media was making the Japanese feel as though they are superior to the United States.” Superior in tactics, ability, and in unity.
