Read the excerpt from "When Fear Was Stronger Than Justice":

It all happened so quickly. The Japanese on the West Coast of the United States had made lives for themselves in spite of discrimination, but on December 7, 1941, everything changed. To panicked people after the attack on Pearl Harbor, every Japanese could be a potential spy, ready and willing to assist in an invasion that was expected at any moment. Many political leaders, army officers, newspaper reporters, and ordinary people came to believe that everyone of Japanese ancestry, including American citizens born in the United States, needed to be removed from the West Coast.
In February 1942, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed an executive order that moved nearly 120,000 Japanese and Japanese Americans into 10 isolated relocation centers in Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Idaho, Utah, and Wyoming. The temporary, tar paper-covered barracks, the guard towers, and most of the barbed-wire fences are gone now, but the people who spent years of their lives in the centers will never forget them.

Use the information in this excerpt, and the information you learned in the lesson about the Manzanar internment camp, to draw at least two logical connections between the ideas in the two. Explain each of these connections, using evidence to support your ideas. Your response should be 3–4 paragraphs in length.

Respuesta :

About two-thirds of all Japanese Americans interned at Manzanar were American citizens by birth. FDR's executive order took freedom away from American citizens without due process. That was due to the fear of "everyone of Japanese ancestry" which was unfounded.

Manzanar’s internees suffered from the harsh desert environment. Temperature soared as high as 110ºF in summer while dropped frequently below freezing in winter. Combined with "The temporary, tar paper-covered barracks, the guard towers" all showed how badly the Japanese Americans were treated in those internment camps.

Answer:

Explanation:

Japaneses were un-justly interned at camps during World War II - this is reflected in the title "When Fear Was Stronger Than Justice." It was fear that led people to "to believe that everyone of Japanese ancestry.....needed to be removed from the West Coast."

The relocation was also very sudden and happened within a short time after FDR's executive order. The first sentence "(i)t all happened so quickly" attests to that. Many Japanese Americans had to leave their belongings, businesses and careers as they were moved by the US Government.
