After the Pearl Harbor attack, some Americans attitudes towards Japanese-Americans were strong. In response to this FDR created an executive order that said all people of Japanese descent, no matter if they were born in America or not, who lived on the west coast must be relocated inland. This was done for two reasons. First, after Pearl Harbor many Americans were concerned about the national security of the US. Secondly, FDR wanted to protect the Japanese- Americans from the hatred some Americans had against Japanese- Americans. However, this relocation wasn't as great as FDR planned. Several Japanese-Americans found themselves living in horrible conditions while being monitored by military officials. Consequently, many of these people were upset about having to leave their homes and live in run down places, and this caused disruption in the US during the early 1940's. One example of the hardships Japanese- Americans faced is from a show I watched recently.
