The relocation of U.S. citizens of Japanese descent during World War II primarily violated the constitutional principle of equal protection under the law, as guaranteed by the Fourteenth Amendment. This action discriminated against individuals based on their race and ethnicity, subjecting them to unjust internment without due process. Additionally, it undermined their rights as U.S. citizens, highlighting a failure to uphold civil liberties during a time of national crisis.

The constitutionality of Executive Order 9066 was upheld because the provisions of other orders that required individuals of Japanese ancestry to report to assembly centers and providing for the detention of such persons in assembly and relocation centers were separate.
This was a case determining the constitutionality of putting Japanese Americans into "relocation" camps or internment camps. The Supreme Court decided that internment camps were constitutional because of military urgency, and that protection from espionage far outweighed Korematsu's (and thus all Japanese American's) individual rights.

constitutional because it was based on military urgency
The relocation and internment of Japanese-Americans who were forcibly relocated into what were essentially concentration camps . ~ see link below .
Internment camps, particularly those established for Japanese Americans during World War II, were a violation of civil rights because they were based on racial discrimination rather than evidence of individual wrongdoing. The forced relocation and confinement of thousands of innocent citizens deprived them of their freedom, property, and due process, violating constitutional protections. These actions reflected a broader pattern of prejudice and fear, undermining the principles of equality and justice that are foundational to democratic societies.
the reason was to get back at japanese
We were at war with Japan and thought that they may be spying on the US.The Japanese Americans were sent to the relocation camps because the Americans suspected that there were spies in that particular group.
