Hi Flutiee!
During WWII, Japanese Americans on the west coast states were placed in internment camps after the bombing of Pearl Harbor by the U.S. Government in fear that they would collaborate with the Japanese forces. After the war was over, many of the Japanese Americans were still discriminated against, since Americans were still mad and weary of them. However, Congress approved for $20,000 to be payed to each surviving camp member in 1988, over 40 years afterwards.
For the last part of the question, many argue that a correlation can be made, since it was the U.S. government who originally allowed slavery to be maintained.

Answer:
In order to protect the economic interests of American banks and investors.
Explanation:
After the end of the Spanish-American War in 1898, with the Treaty of Paris (1898), which gave the United States control of Cuba and Puerto Rico, a period of constant interventions and occupations that involved the United States in Central America and the Caribbean started. These interventions and occupations are known as the Banana Wars. This period ended with the US military occupation of Haiti and with the Politics of Good Neighborhood presented by US President Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1934. The <u>United Fruit Company</u> was the most important company in this situation, with important financial interests in the production of commodities such as bananas, tobacco, sugarcane and other agricultural products in the Caribbean and Central America. In this process, the US intervened in countries such as Panama, Cuba, Dominic Republic, Nicaragua, Haiti, Honduras, and Mexico, all of them for similar economic reasons.
After the end of the Civil war, the Republican party was left unchallenged in its authority over the country. It then started the process of Reconstruction of the South. This was faced by vehement opposition from the majority in the South that had supported the Confederate course. Those that supported these reforms were those that had been marginalized in the slavery system in the South. Others that supported the reforms projected to benefit from economic opportunities created by carpetbaggers looking to assert their authority in the south.
