Makers of America: Class discussion and exercises
Makers Of America: The Japanese
Chapter 35:
America in World War II, 1941 - 1945
Questions for Class Discussion
- How were the Japanese immigrants similar
to other immigrants from East Asia, such as the Chinese and Filipinos? How
were they different?
- Should the World War II internment
experience be seen as the most significant event in the Japanese-American
experience? How did it affect those who lived through it and their descendants?
Suggested Student Exercises
- Use photographs or documents from early
Japanese immigrants to glean their views of the United States.
- Consider the lives and careers of some
prominent Japanese-Americans (such as Senator Daniel Inouye of Hawaii) in
relation to the general Japanese-American experience.
