Question

Analyze the home-front experiences of TWO of the following groups during the Second World War. African Americans, Japanese Americans, Jewish Americans, Mexican Americans

Answer 1

The Japanese failed badly on the home-front during the Second World War as many were interned in camps for fears that they were working for the enemy. This was a racist move on the part of the US government because Germans did not suffer the same fate. Jewish Americans lobbied hard to get Roosevelt to do more about the attrocities being committed in Europe.
