Japanese Americans were interned during World War 2 because some Americans feared they would be disloyal.
Japan was urging Japanese Americans to act as spies. However, there was no evidence that any Japanese Americans had engaged in espionage or sabotage. During the entire war only ten people were convicted of spying for Japan and these were all Caucasian.
Another factor was that white farmers were concerned about the competition from Japanese American farmers and saw internment as a way to get rid of their competitors.
The US Government made amends through the Civil Liberties Act of 1988, when $20,000 per internee was paid out to individuals who had been interned or relocated, including those who chose to return to Japan. Some Japanese and Japanese Americans who were relocated during World War II received compensation for property losses, according to a 1948 law.
It was able to bring colonists from all over the world to settle in Canada West. Without the railway, Canada West would not have been able to develop so effectively. Also, when British Columbia entered Confederation, they were promised a railway. This fulfilled their requirements for joining Confederation and so the government no longer needed to make amends. Also, movement was now faster and easier between the west and east coasts. This would encourage trade within the country, rather than with the USA. Lastly, when needed, troops could be moved much more easily to where they needed to be in case of war.
Rome outlawed Christianity because of the unRoman attitude of the Christians. They were not only antisocial according to normal ways of living, they were also treasonous in that they refused to give even lip service to the state gods. This was a serious matter to the Romans, as they believed the prosperity and welfare of the state depended on the disposition of the gods. The Christians themselves were given opportunities to make amends, but when some of them refused, they were executed.

Yes, individuals who have caused harm can still be leaders, as leadership is not solely defined by past actions but also by the ability to inspire, motivate, and guide others. A leader's capacity for growth, accountability, and learning from mistakes can transform their past into a source of strength. However, effective leadership often hinges on the leader's willingness to acknowledge their past and actively work towards making amends and fostering a positive environment. Ultimately, the impact of their leadership will depend on their actions and the trust they rebuild with their followers.
The Canadian government has taken several steps to make amends for the internment of Japanese Canadians during World War II, including issuing formal apologies. In 1988, the government acknowledged the injustices and provided financial compensation to surviving internees and their descendants as part of the Japanese Canadian Redress Agreement. Additionally, initiatives have been implemented to promote awareness and education about this historical injustice, aiming to prevent similar occurrences in the future.
I am hoping that we can make amends.
The symbolism of the squid in Japanese culture is used to show that it is too late to make any amends. This is commonly used to define a slippery issue that already has gone too far to be reversed.
No, the question would have to indicate a person to make amends with.
