During World War II, Japanese Americans were treated extremely unfairly. Specifically, President Roosevelt signed an executive order which called for all Japanese Americans in the US to be rounded up and moved into camps.
they were put into camps were they had to live away from public for safety reason as the USA were paranoid of other attacks. They were not treated badly in these camp but just kept away from the publicThey were put in internment camps because the government thought there were spies. Only those Japanese and Americans of Japanese descent who lived on the West Coast of the United States were interned. The Japanese and Americans of Japanese descent in Hawaii were not incarcerated!
