WWII is remembered as a time
when our nation united in a just
cause. The war was a daily part of
every American’s life.
It was a struggle of good
versus evil and everyone
pitched in to do their
part.
The American workforce changed as
6 million women went to work…
A fictional character named “Rosie
the Riveter” encouraged women to
participate in “making history
working for Victory.”
Rationing affected everyone.
Items such as tires, gas, coffee,
sugar, meat, butter, cheese,
nylon, and cotton were limited to
the public, as well as businesses.
Every American was
expected to do their
part…
Housewives were asked to save
table scraps and fat…
…and
children
collected
old tires,
rubber
shoes,
bathing
caps,
and tin
cans.
They were known as Uncle Sam’s
Scrappers and Tin Can Colonels.
Even children’s toys and cartoons
reflected support for the war effort.
Americans were
encouraged to grow
Victory Gardens to
save on using
ration coupons and to
enable the government to
feed the troops.
Famous entertainers such as Bing
Crosby and Bugs Bunny encouraged
Americans to support the war by
buying bonds.
Actors made training films for the soldiers, acted
in patriotic movies and propaganda clips, and
urged Americans to do their part.
Americans
sent “V
mail” to
the troops
in order
to show their support.
The Office of
War
Information
controlled
radio
broadcasts,
made posters
and newsreels,
and tried to
promote
unrest in
Germany, Italy
and Japan..
JAPANESE-AMERICAN
INTERNMENT
Japanese-Americans were singled out like
no other racial group as President
Franklin Roosevelt signed Executive Order
9066 forcing approximately 120,000
Japanese-Americans into Relocation
Camps.
They were gathered into
temporary relocation centers,
usually set up at local
fairgrounds and racetracks.
Then they
were taken to
one of ten
Relocation
Camps set up
in remote,
isolated areas
and overseen
by the War
Relocation
Authority.
Many in the camps
worked for the
government, earning
twelve to nineteen
dollars a month.
Many of the young men chose
to join the military and
were sent off to fight the
war in Europe.
The 422d Regimental
Combat Team fought
in Europe and was one
of the most decorated
units of the war.
In 1943 the American
Government began to allow
the Japanese Americans to
be released.
In December 1944,
Korematsu v. United
States upheld the
decision of Executive
Order 9066.
The CIVIL LIBERTIES
ACT OF 1988, also known
as the JAPANESEAMERICAN REDRESS
BILL, said that “a grave
injustice was done.”
Congress was to pay each
victim of internment
$20,000 in reparations.
This was sent with a
signed apology from the
President of the United
States.
During the war, a
small number of
German and Italian
resident aliens were
also interned. About
2,000 German alien
residents were sent
back to Germany.
Germans were also
sent from Latin
America to the U.S.
to be used in
prisoner exchanges
with Germany.
