Too; the 'Japanese' in Hawaii were not interred.
Not sure how true this is; but, those few AJA who living here in Arizona had to stay north of Main St/Apache Trail (the old US Rte 60)------otherwise, they faced being tossed into those camps as well.
I am suspecting that was due to an old Mesa family; the Ishikawa's, possibly them being Mormon. Had the Feds gone after that family--------that could have turned the LDS church against the former.
As for some Jews in the Axis countries; the few in Japan, of all places, escaped the Holocaust. Hitler wanted Tokyo to turn them over whereupon Imperial Japan, bloodthirsty/racist as it was-------gagged in disgust and told the Nazi's where to go.

I have seen no evidence of that. So I doubt it.

I think it should be taught in every primary grade, in every state in the U.S.
Children pick it up very quickly.

Oh but no! Why are we Americans forced to learn the language of the illegals! It contributes to the "Browning" of America!
