Answer:

D}Japanese-Americans faced discrimination from their communities and the US government.

Step-by-step explanation:

The relocation and imprisonment in concentration camps was an initiative by the US government that targeted all Japanese and Americans with Japanese ancestry. Around 120 000 people faced harsh discrimination from the Roosevelt initiative after the US wrote a former declaration of war shortly after the bombing of port Pearl Harbor.

Interesting to note is the fact that sixty percent of these civilians were Americans citizens who had long been in the country, the second and third generations resulting from the immigration were also a target of segregation.

The practice of racism continued until the year 1946.
