  1. Japanese American Imprisonment By: Eric Serslev And Ryan Haas

  2. Executive Order No. 9066 President Roosevelt signed this order stating that the U.S. military is allowed to prescribe military areas in such places appropriate. Military Commanders may determine, from which any or all persons may be excluded, and with such respect to which, the right of any person to enter, remain in, or leave shall be subject to whatever restrictions the Secretary of War or the appropriate Military Commander may impose in his discretion

  3. Underlying fear • The American people feared and hated the Japanese Americans because Japan had just bombed pearl harbor and there were rumors that there were spies in America.

  4. Scapegoats • The Japanese Americans were used as scapegoats because of their shared heritage with our enemies.

  5. Theconnection • The connection between The Crucible and the Japanese American internment is that we (the common people) placed hundreds and thousands of innocent people into jail/ camps.

  6. The Japanese internment connects with the crucible because many innocent people were wrongfully accused and convicted.

  7. The hatred toward the Japanese Americans was equal to that which was shown towards those who were accused of witchcraft.

  8. Another fear of the Japanese was introduced through leaks of faulty intelligence about there being Japanese special intelligence agents in the west coast area. This connects to the way the girls could charge anyone in Salem with witchcraft and people believed them like during the time when Putnam's daughter charged George Jacobs.

  9. Immediate Consequences • Some of the immediate consequences were that camps were set up and all Americans of Japanese, Chinese, Korean and Hawaiian decent were put into these camps.

  10. Long-term Effects • One of the long term effects was that the U.S. government paid $20,000 to every living person that had been in one of the camps in order to compensate for their suffering
