Why did the United States create internment camps for the Japanese during World War II? *

A) They wanted to keep the Japanese safe

B) They wanted to round up illegal immigrants and hold them while they waited for deportation

C) Racist attitudes and fear towards the Japanese due to Pearl Harbor

D) To train them for battle in World War II

The answer is C.

Explanation:

Let me explain. It would not be A because they didn’t lock Japanese people up for their own good. So not A. B, although makes a bit sense, would not be correct. And definitely would not be D. They distrusted the Japanese after Pearl Harbor attack so why would the U. S. Government want them to fight for them in battle?

That leaves us with C. This is because after the Pearl Harbor Attack by the Imperial Japanese Army , the U.S. were suspicious of any person of Japanese descent in America. They feared that they were spy’s and were helping their native country attack the U.S. That was false, and the U.S after the war realized it was a big mistake.

Hope this helped. Pls let me know.
