Answer: To show loyalty to the U.S., gain upward mobility and/or Citizenship

Explanation: During World War II, many Americans of Japanese descent volunteered to join the U.S. military. This was in spite of growing sentiments against them as well as internment of Japanese Americans in camps.

It was a way to show loyalty to the U.S. For some it was the only way to gain citizenship, as well as move up the social ranks as ethnic minority groups had limited rights. They were first rejected, with the exception of bilingual Japanese Americans who helped with translation and interrogation.

Write a newspaper article for Ida B. Wells’s newspaper about lynching in the South during the Jim Crow era.
ValentinkaMS [17]

The oldest of eight children, Ida B. Wells was born in Holly Springs, Mississippi. Her parents, who were very active in the Republican Party during Reconstruction, died in a yellow fever epidemic in the late 1870s. Wells attended Rust College and then became a teacher in Memphis, Tennessee. Shortly after she arrived, Wells was involved in an altercation with a white conductor while riding the railroad. She had purchased a first-class ticket, and was seated in the ladies car when the conductor ordered her to sit in the Jim Crow (i.e. black) section, which did not offer first-class accommodations. She refused and when the conductor tried to remove her, she "fastened her teeth on the back of his hand." Wells was ejected from the train, and she sued. She won her case in a lower court, but the decision was reversed in an appeals court.
