i'm not sure where to find the answer to this question, I've searched google,..but it gives too much irrelevant information.please help

what led the government to evacuate Japanese Americans from the West Coast?
a. long-held prejudice, and fears inflamed by the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor
b. terrorist attacks by immigrants living on the West Coast
c. fear for the safety of Japanese Americans on the West Coast
d. refusal of the Nisei to accept United Sates citizenship

thanks alot guys!

There were no terrorist attacks in the continental U.S., nor were the Japanese-Americans threatened by anyone else. I've never heard about the Nisei refusing to accept U.S. citizenship.

That leaves the right answer.

Because the Japanese Americans had a different culture and looked different than the majority, the experienced a lot of prejudice. After the Japanese attacked Hawaii, many people on the West Coast feared that Japan might invade the mainland. Of course, they also believed that the Japanese-Americans might help any invading force.

Can you sort this down to two answers that might be possible?

yea i think A and C..?

soo.. A would be correct? Ms.Sue?.

Yes, A is correct.

To find the answer to your question, you can start by looking for reputable sources that discuss the internment of Japanese Americans during World War II. Here are the steps you can follow:

1. Start by visiting websites of reliable sources such as history archives, educational institutions, or reputable news outlets. These sources often provide accurate and well-researched information.

2. Use specific keywords to narrow down your search. For example, search for "Japanese American internment during World War II" or "reasons for the evacuation of Japanese Americans."

3. Look for articles, books, or reports that discuss the topic in detail. These sources will often provide a thorough analysis of the factors that led to the evacuation.

4. Skim through the article or source to locate the relevant information. Pay attention to headings, subheadings, or specific paragraphs that address the reasons behind the evacuation.

After conducting a search with these steps in mind, you will find that the correct answer to your question is (a) long-held prejudice and fears inflamed by the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. The evacuation was primarily influenced by the prevailing anti-Japanese sentiment in the United States and the perception that Japanese Americans posed a potential threat after the attack on Pearl Harbor. It is important to remember that this decision was later widely regarded as unjust and unconstitutional.

Remember, always critically evaluate the information you find to ensure it is from reliable sources and supported by historical evidence.
