How did this executive order effect American citizens? Well for starters we ripped Japanese-AMERICAN citizens from their homes and their families, and through them in internment camps. We punished our own AMERICAN…

Another minority little spoken of in its service during World War II are Native American women, who indeed contributed to the war effort while also making great strides in their social transformation. Grace Mary Gouveia examines this period of time in history in the article ""We Also Serve": American Indian Women's Role in World War II,” with sources such as the Bureau of Indian Affairs publications as well as Indian school journals.

A Radical’s Radical Plan to Eliminate Radicals When I was younger, I remember many days where I came home from school and asked my dad “Why do we have to learn history.

Puzzling me, he would respond every time by saying “those who do not know history are doomed to repeat it…

Detention Center.” The source is a written testimony by Masao Takahashi, a Japanese man that was arrested after the bombing of Pearl Harbor. This testimony was at Takahashi’s Commission on Wartime Relocation and Internment of Civilians (CWRIC) hearing in Seattle, on September 10, 1981.
