After the war, Japanese Americans faced significant inequality in the United States compared to their white neighbors. One factor contributing to this inequality was the internment of Japanese Americans during World War II, which resulted in the loss of property, community ties, and psychological trauma. Additionally, many Japanese Americans faced discrimination in areas such as employment, housing, and education, which limited their opportunities for socio-economic advancement. These inequalities were exacerbated by lingering prejudices and stereotypes against Japanese Americans, perpetuating their marginalization in American society.
