Post for March 3

You have read the three articles about the Home Front, Role of Women, and Japanese Internment camps.  I would like you to write an response to the following question(s)...choose one of the three options.  What ever option that you choose, you will need to back it up with at least three examples from the readings.  

  1. How did the role of women change after World War II?  Has this change been a good change for society?  
  2. The Japanese Internment was a blight on the rights of Japanese Americans.  Was the United States justified in putting these people in camps, or was this just a big mistake?  
  3. How did life change for the American public?  Do you feel that this change unified Americans, or only made the division between male, female, and Japanese Americans much more divided?
