Answer: In the days after the Pearl Harbor attack by the Japanese on December 7, 1941, suspicion fell on Japanese American communities in the western United States. The U.S. Department of the Treasury froze the assets of all citizens and resident aliens who were born in Japan, and the Department of Justice arrested some 1,500 religious and community leaders as potentially dangerous enemy aliens. Because many of the largest populations of Japanese Americans were in close proximity to vital war assets along the Pacific coast, U.S. military commanders petitioned Secretary of War Henry Stimson to intervene. The result was Roosevelt’s Executive Order 9066.
Explanation: In 1948 Pres. Harry S. Truman signed the Evacuation Claims Act, which gave internees the opportunity to submit claims for property lost as a result of relocation. Pres. Gerald Ford formally rescinded Executive Order 9066 on February 16, 1976. In 1988 Congress passed the Civil Liberties Act, which stated that a “grave injustice” had been done to Japanese American citizens and resident aliens during World War II. It also established a fund that paid some $1.6 billion in reparations to formerly interned Japanese Americans or their heirs.

Answer:
B. A "cooling-off period."
Explanation:
The Freedom Rides, was a movement initiated by a group consisting of twelve African-Americans and six whites, who were commemorating the seventh anniversary of a decision of the Supreme court which ruled that segregation in schools across the country was not constitutional. These groups attempted entering 'whites only' areas and this action, resulted in violent attacks by white mobs. The movement began on May 4, 1961.
When the situation became really critical, Attorney General Robert Kennedy, issued a statement where he advised that a cooling-off period be observed until a state of normalcy is restored. He reasoned that some of the travelers in the buses were innocent people who needed to get to their destinations, and so could easily be attacked by the mob who asks no questions.
