Answer 1

Answer:

The description of the case is absolutely justified. The Court's decision in the Korematsu case allowed the military to pass over the rights of many American citizens, simply by having a Japanese ancestry. Thus, their property was seized and they were sent to security camps, under the government's pretext of maintaining national security.

Explanation:

Korematsu v. United States was one of the key Supreme Court cases that examined constitutional compliance under Executive Order 9066, under which Japanese-Americans were required to relocate to internment camps during World War II, regardless of their nationality.

By a decision of 6 judges versus 3, the court agreed with the government, declaring that the order was consistent with the constitution. The decision made by Judge Hugo Black ruled that the need to protect against espionage outweighed the individual rights of Fred Korematsu, as well as the rights of other Americans of Japanese descent.
