If you are talking about the relocation of Japanese Americans during ww2, then i would write about it. If not, plz tell me and i will edit my answer.

After the bombing of Pearl Harbor in 1941, the American public was afraid of their Japanese neighbors. This first lead to personal mistreatment like cold stares or being made fun at. However, as the newspapers fueled the US publics anger, the government had to declare war, especially when Japan wouldn't meet any of the requirements. Some Japanese-Americans were found to be transferring information to the Japanese government, and so the US government decided to transfer all Japanese Americans, Issei and Nisei to camps that were located in the "who-knows-where-it-is" regions, mainly deserts. This left many houses empty (#1 affect). The next affect arrived, as many Japanese Americans were still loyal to the US government and had no connection to the Japanese government. However, because they were moved, they felt betrayed, and couldn't trust anything the US government had to say (#2 affect). Many young people tried to find their way out, by joining the military (when they were allowed to) or trying to go to college (#3 affect). Most of the Japanese soldiers proved their loyalty well to the US government by dying for them to saving fellow soldiers to doing heroic acts. In the war zone, the Japanese americans were started to be accepted, however, the predjudice was still strong back in America, with "Remember the Pearl Harbor" members and other groups trying to keep Japanese Americans from returning to their homes. The Japanese Americans later resettled in places that were more opened to them. Many older Japanese Americans distrust the American government, and the younger generations wanted to prove their worth to the government. All in all, at the end of the war, the US government apologized to their Japanese-background citizens, and even awarded some of their Japanese American soldiers medals. Soon, life started to return to the same, but the Japanese Americans, the US government, and the other Americans learned a lesson that they could never forget....

In the South during the Antebellum period, the years between the late 1700s and the first half of the 1800s, what most differentiated the elite and the poor was the <u>land ownership (A)</u>.

Why did the creoles oppose the presence of the peninsulars?

AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

Explanation:

La historiografía tradicional sobre las independencias ha tendido a considerar éstas como el resultado de un conflicto de naciones, guerras de liberación nacional, en el que unas preexistentes naciones americanas se liberaban de una también preexistente nación española. En esta interpretación la existencia de dos formas de identidad colectiva de carácter protonacional, criollos (nacidos en América) y peninsulares (nacidos en Europa) ha tenido un papel determinante. Las guerras de independencia habrían sido el resultado de un enfrentamiento entre identidades colectivas definidas por el lugar de nacimiento. Una afirmación que hoy muy pocos historiadores se atreverían a mantener de forma explícita pero que sigue siento el trasfondo último del relato hegemónico sobre las independencias americanas.

2La propuesta de este trabajo es tanto discutir esta idea como desentrañar las funciones que ha cumplido en una historiografía que ha interpretado las guerras de independencia hispanoamericanas como guerras de liberación nacional. Para sustentar esta hipótesis se necesitó partir de la existencia previa de identidades colectivas con densidad política en el interior de la Monarquía Católica y lo más parecido que se encontró fue un supuesto conflicto criollos-peninsulares. Mi propuesta es que las naciones no fueron la causa de las guerras de independencia y que el enfrentamiento entre peninsulares y criollos, en el que la interpretación anterior se sustenta, es poco más que una bella leyenda, un mito historiográfico que forma parte del proceso de imaginación nacional latinoamericano y no de la realidad histórica.
