Fred Yamamoto was a reporter for the @HeartMountainWY Sentinel. He was also the first incarceree to enlist in the @USArmy when it was opened to Japanese Americans in 1943. #OTD in 1944 his letter to the editor about conditions in Italy was printed in the Sentinel. 1/2
米国大統領は国防省の調査員を日系アメリカ人が住む地域に送り、アメリカに対する忠誠心があるかどうかを調べさせました。調査員は日系アメリカ人はアメリカに対して愛国心があるという調査結果を出しましたが、日系アメリカ人は周りから激しい差別や嫌がらせを受けるようになりました。
更に、1930年代の日本による中国侵略は、「日本は信用できない敵国だ」という反日感情を米国市民に与え、日系人(二世を含む)に対しての風当たりも更に強くなっていったのです。反日運動家は、アメリカ在住の日系人が昭和天皇の「秘密部隊」だと責め始めました。
アメリカが攻撃されることが唯一の道だと考え、日本に攻撃されやすい状況を作りました。日本の原油の供給ラインを断ち切り、日本軍の侵略先に米国軍基地を作ったり、また船艦を真珠湾に集結させ、日本にとって格好の標的を作りました。米政府は日本が近いうちに攻撃してくることを知っていたのです。
ヨーロッパでドイツが、そしてアジアで日本が他国侵略に向かう中、アメリカは世界大戦への参入の機を窺っていました。米国市民は第一大戦や恐慌がもたらした貧困のせいで国際戦争に加わることに対して非常に消極的でした。ルーズベルト大統領は国民がアメリカが参戦することを承認するには
日系アメリカ人一世達は、人種差別にあいながらも、日系コミュニティを発展させ、経済的にも安定した生活を送ることができるようになりました。しかし一世達の経済的成功が逆にアメリカ人達の反日感情を刺激するようになったのです。(写真:Densho)
