The Boston Tea Party protest by the Sons of Liberty in Boston, Massachusetts, in the year of 1773.

The American Colonists were protesting England's tax on the tea.

Keep in mind, we were still a colony then which means

we were not the United States of America yet.

England was putting very high taxes on goods

that were coming to the United States of America.

So for example, tea was something hat everyone drank and

it was a commodity so the colonists were protesting the high taxes.

So they got on board the boat with all the tea from England

and they dumped all the team into the harbor.

Why is the Japanese -american interment camps so important for new citzens to understand?

posledela

Because the internment broke several conditions of the Bill of Rights of the Constitution (in the United States). The same thing happened in Canada. I've lived in 2 communities that interred the Japanese during WWII. I find they have varied in their response to what happened to them during the war, but for the most part, they are model citizens. They have been very forgiving of their treatment.

It is important for every citizen to remember to defend the Constitution. The rights of citizens cannot be taken away on a whim. Every safeguard must be fully exercised or the Constitution is just a piece of paper.

New Citizens should remember that rights are conditional. If treason is involved the Constitution will not provide adequate protection. If obedience is required, it should be given. That's the balance between the Bill of Rights and allegiance to another country. The internment should never have happened and wouldn't have in normal times.
