Both in the 1940s and today, the perception of the United States under the pervasive danger of enemies operating against the U.S. people, their institutions, institutions and way of life have thrown the population into an unfunded psicosis necessitating the people and the government to take positive action about it.

As war broke out between the United States and the Empire of Japan, the sense of being defenseless because of the great loss in human loves and material assets was used as a justification for many U.S. citizens to verbally and physically attack the <em>Nisei, </em>this, the U.S. born Japanese people and the Japan-born people even more. The ensuing paranoia portrayed these people as some kind of clever yet evil agents of a Japanese plan to take over the U.S. by sending people to settle in the country decades in advance. The fact that many U.S. citizens from all age groups had been living and even stretching ties with the Japanese-descent people nearly meant nothing overnight as words of the war spread. In time, the Nisei would prove as patriotic as or even more than any other U.S. citizen from other ethnic backgrounds. A proof of the Nisei's steadfastness, discipline, loyalty and courage defending and even dying for their country, the United States of America, was their distinguished service in the most decorated U.S. Army unit of World War II, the  442nd Nisei Regiment, fighting in Italy.

Nearly 60 years later, as a result of the 9/11 Terrorist Attack in New York, the psicosis and paranoia spread across the U.S. population, this time, against Muslims. Just like the Nisei, Muslim people had been coming to and settling in the United States, making important economic and cultural contributions to the country. Even though most U.S. people had no idea what Islam, their religion, was all about, peaceful co-existence and even friendship relationships thrived. But as the culprits of the infamous attack against the U.S. claimed to be driven by Islam, the despair, frustration, vengefulness and even hatred of the U.S. people for anything even remotely linked to Islam set in. Verbal and physical attacks against Muslims took place. Today, as key pieces of information have been disclosed, the animosity against Muslims has waned but not entirely disappear.

In both situations, a level-headed approach to each situation supported by unbiased and reliable information would have spared millions of people, making their best effort to fit in and make a contribution to U.S. society, the humiliation of being called traitors and so many other abuses, in many cases, violent, physical abuses.

What is an easy way to remember who puritans were
Kazeer [188]
Well because Puritans were a group of people with religious moral beliefs this means they were very spiritual and religious, which reminds me of the word pure.
Because religious beliefs require you to have a pure, clean heart before God, this could remind you of the word puritans, pure-itans --  because Puritans were religious.

Also, puritans were a group of English Protestants, that can also help you! Protestants - puritans, both start with P and when you remember the word protestants you'll remember that they protested against the church of England under Queen Elizabeth to change and simply forms of worship because they knew it was not the way it should be.

Lastly, Puritans came right after the Pilgrims in the 1630s. Both these words start with P also and they will remind you that Puritans had a great influence in the world just like the Pilgrims. The puritans grew discontent with how the church of England had become (just like the pilgrims) and they wanted to change it. The Puritans brought a huge impact on the church of England with their Christian passion and beliefs. Both the Pilgrims and the Puritans sought to make a difference in the world in light of their faith and beliefs in God. They both brought a new religious freedom to the world by sharing their Christian faith to the world.
The pilgrims will help you remember who the puritans were :)

So, Ways to Remember 
1. PURE-itans (they were members of a religious movement) remember the "pure" in puritans
2. Puritans were Protestants - both start with P (reminds you that they protested against the Church of England & the forms of worship practiced)
3. Puritans and the Pilgrims - (both start with p) remember they shared the same beliefs! and they both fought for their Christian faith and had a huge impact on the Christian church!

Hope this Helps!! Let me know if you have more questions :))
