Executive Order 9066
A Comic By:
Samuel Kensek
On February 19, 1942, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signs Executive Order 9066, initiating a controversial World War II policy with lasting consequences for Japanese Americans. The document ordered the removal of resident enemy aliens from parts of the West vaguely identified as military areas.
This was done because the government believed that Japanese immigrants were spying on the Americas during the Second World War.
The Japanese were relocated to Barrack like housing, as seen here in Manzanar. In total there were 10 camps made.
The camps were quickly built, they provided little space, privacy, or shelter from the elements...

...and on top of all that they could only take what little they could carry.
Through all of this the Japanese tried their hardest to make it better by building a sense of community within the camps. They built schools, held talent shows, and even building their very own community parks.
Each room would house one family, no matter the size. It would have a few cots and a coal burning stove
Gerald Ford formally rescinded Executive Order 9066 on February 16, 1976. In 1988 Congress passed the Civil Liberties Act, which stated that a “grave injustice” had been done to Japanese American citizens and resident aliens during World War II.
There would be way to many riots and protests.
In our world today this would not be excepted at all.
Mr. K
It would never be excepted in the first place
