L’internement des américano-japonais pendant la Seconde Guerre Mondiale

The multicultural movement in the United States today is a collective post-Cold War attempt by ethnic minorities to redress long-standing grievances. The Japanese American community constitutes one part of this new political/cultural coalition. This essay describes the historical experiences of this particular ethnic minority in an effort to explain why many Japanese Americans today identify strongly with a social movement calling for the formal recognition of ethnic diversity within the United States and an end to institutionalized racism.McCollum Feeley Francis.
