1. Why doses the author and the author’s brothers and sisters feel a certain amount of relief in being sent to the internment camp in manzanar ?

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there is no reference attached, we can say that they felt a certain amount of relief in being sent to the internment camp in Manzanar because they thought that other people could harm them, so being at Manzanar camp represented an opportunity to be protected.

Located in the state of California, Manzanar was a concentration camp ordered by US President Franklin D. Roosevelt during World War II, to send Japanese-American families that lived in the Pacific. From the end of 1942 to 1945, almost 118,000 people were sent to these camps. They lived under poor conditions due to the cold weather of the region and the dust storms.  

here are some events that to cause increased conflict between the north and south

1) mexican cession- gaining modern day california, utah, arizona, and new mexico from mexico. caused southern and northern politicians to fight over whether or not there would be slavery in these newly acquired territories.

2) uncle tom's cabin- this famous book described the cruelty of slavery in the south during the antebellum period, causing more northerners to support abolition and southerners to resent the book as they felt it unfairly depicted southern society.

3) kansas- nebraska act- disagreements over whether or not kansas and nebraska would be free or slave states caused issues between northern and southern politicians in congress.

4) bleeding kansas- this fighting took place in kansas after congress allowed this territory to vote on whether or not they would have slavery. citizens were killed and buildings were destroyed during this fighting.

one of the negative side effects were the economic losses the events of september 11th caused. many, many people lost their jobs as a result of a downturn in the economy after the terrorist attacks.
