Answer:

1. Intense pressure by the Japanese-American Citizens league and redress organization caused the President Jimmy Carter led administration to form a commission to investigate the Internment of the Japanese Americans in 1942.

2. The commission examined the reason for the exclusion and the justification for it. They found that the reasons for exclusion was based on racial prejudice and fear and the justification for internment was baseless.

Explanation:

After the aerial attack of the Pearl Harbor in 1941 by the Japanese government, the U.S Department of War started nurturing suspicions of the Japanese-Americans and therefore sought the Internment of these people. The U.S Department of Justice debated this move as they believed that this decision would result in trampling of the rights of the citizens. President Franklin Roosevelt signed the Executive Order 9066 which saw the actualization of the Internment of Japanese-Americans.

When President Gerald R. Ford realized the injustice meted on this group of people in the year, 1976, he repealed the Executive Order 9066 and in 1980, under President Jimmy Cater, a commission was launched to examine the reasons for the Internment. The commission found that the justification given for the decision of Internment was baseless, because the move was borne from fear and racial prejudice.

Which of the following was a factor that attracted settlers from the East to the Oregon Country in the 1840s?
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

In the late 1830s and early 1840s, many more Americans started to move to Oregon. This was the era of the famous Oregon Trail. These settlers were motivated by a desire for land, not by a desire for furs. They were not going to Oregon to trade but rather to set up their own new homes.

What action did the Radical Republicans take during Reconstruction?
lbvjy [14]

The Radical Republicans were a faction of American politicians within the Republican Party of the United States from around 1854 (before the American Civil War) until the end of Reconstruction in 1877. They called themselves "Radicals" and were opposed during the War by the Moderate Republicans (led by President Abraham Lincoln), by the conservative Republicans, and the largely pro-slavery and later anti-Reconstruction Democratic Party, as well as by conservatives in the South and liberals in the North during Reconstruction.[1] Radicals strongly opposed slavery during the war and after the war distrusted ex-Confederates, demanding harsh policies for punishing the former rebels, and emphasizing equality, civil rights, and voting rights for the "freedmen" (recently freed slaves).[2]

During the war, Radical Republicans often opposed Lincoln in terms of selection of generals (especially his choice of DemocratGeorge B. McClellan for top command of the major eastern Army of the Potomac) and his efforts to bring seceded Southern states back into the Union as quickly and easily as possible. The Radicals passed their own reconstruction plan through the Congress in 1864, but Lincoln vetoed it and was putting his own presidential policies in effect by virtue as military commander-in-chief when he was assassinated in April 1865.[3] Radicals pushed for the uncompensated abolition of slavery, while Lincoln wanted to pay slave owners who were loyal to the Union. After the war, the Radicals demanded civil rights for freedmen, such as measures ensuring suffrage. They initiated the various Reconstruction Acts, and limited political and voting rights for ex-Confederate civil officials, military officers and soldiers. They bitterly fought President Andrew Johnson; they weakened his powers and attempted to remove him from office through impeachment, which failed by one vote in 1868.
