Non-Japanese and Japanese Americans were brought to Manzanar during World War II primarily due to Executive Order 9066, which authorized the internment of Japanese Americans in response to wartime fears of espionage and sabotage. This led to the forced relocation of about 120,000 individuals, the majority of whom were U.S. citizens. Non-Japanese individuals, including some Japanese allies and administrative staff, were also present in the camp for various reasons, including managing the internment process and providing support services. The internment experience at Manzanar highlighted the broader issues of civil rights and racial discrimination in the United States during that era.

Why were Internment camps set up for Japanese Americans?

Japanese and Japanese Americans living on the US west coast were placed in internment camps on the claim that spies and sabatouers could be hiding among them.Since Japanese and Japanese Americans living in Hawaii and in the US east of the Mississippi were not forced into camps, and since no American citizens of German or Italian descent were placed in internment camps, the actual reason is more likely related to racial stereotypes and anti-Japanese hysteria.

What was the feeling like inside the bus as Jeanne and her family arrive at camp?

Jeanne is the first of her family to graduate from college and the first to marry a non-Japanese person. That most Japanese do not talk about Manzanar and that many non-Japanese have never heard of it make her wonder if she imagined the whole thing. Her family rarely talks about the camp, and some experiences remain secret, such as when an old woman spat on Jeanne and Kiyo and called them "dirty Japs." In 1966, Jeanne meets a white photographer who had worked at Manzanar, and though at first she finds it difficult, she soon begins to talk about the camp with the woman.


How do you learn japanese easy?

In descending order of ease: (1) Be born to Japanese parents and be brought up in Japan. (2) Be born to non-Japanese parents and be brought up in Japan. (3) Go to school in Japan. (4) Work in Japan. (5) Have monolingual Japanese friends. ...and so on. Besides the first two options, there are no easy ways to learn Japanese.
