Answer Nisei --- I believe.
Nisei
NISEI
The Nisei were second generation Japanese Americans, born in the United States to Japanese parents. They were subject to pervasive discrimination and internment during World War II.
Japanese Americans born in America are American citizens. The term Japanese Americans means that they are of Japanese decent but live in the US.
All of the above, Most were born in the US, Many were war vets., They were forced into camps by the gov.
No, nisei are the first generation of children born to Japanese immigrants to America. They are American born and therefore citizens. Their parents are isei, born in Japan and moved to America, where they had children who were the nisei. There had never been large numbers of Japanese immigrants in America. There was a quota of how many people from each country would be admitted to the US, and the quota for all Asian nations was very low. There were probably some third-generation Japanese-Americans by the time of WWII. Many nisei were old enough to serve in the US military during WWII, and did so with great bravery and distinction, in many cases even while their families were still in the internment camps.
They were no threat to the United States.You would have needed to include the choices for the best description of the the Japanese Americans. I can tell you this: They were loyal Americans being treated unconstitutionally and unfairly. They were interned in deplorable conditions. Their sons fought in the war. They were good and wonderful people who worked hard and had good businesses. They were robbed of their livelihoods and homes. They were not reimbursed for their homes and businesses and farms. It was one of the worst travesties to ever happen in our country (like what happened to the Native Americans). They were not even allowed to be citizens unless they were born here.
Japs or Japanese because we didn't want them to be part of our country but some people called them Japanese-Americans or just Americans.

I think you are referring to the WWII Japanese internment camps. After Pearl Harbor, it was thought that Japanese-American citizens could not be trusted, so they were rounded up and forced to live at various "camps" around the U.S. until the war was over. See the Related Links below.
