	Japanese people - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		While most Japanese live on the islands, some emigrated, predominantly to Hawaii, the west coast of the United States and Canada, Latin America (particularly, Brazil), and Russia, (particularly, Sakhalin and Primorsky Krai).
		The most accepted theory is that present-day Japanese are descended principally from both the Jomon, a paleo-Asiatic people, and the Yayoi, a neo-Asiatic people, with cultural influences from the Korean kingdoms of Gaya and Baekje, and also from the Sui, and Tang Dynasty of China.
		Their comparatively shorter-nosed and hairless Asian counterparts to the south, however, are believed to be due to adaptation to the damper climates, and to their mixing with Austronesian prototypes, when migrating to the Pacific Ocean.

		The Japanese Filipinos are ethnic Japanese born in the Philippines.
		This demonstrates that to the Japanese, it was not a foregone to conclusion to assume that an ethnic Japanese born in the US would be loyal to the US, but if he was, it was extremely easy for him to avoid be labeled as a worthless traitor.
		The ethnic Japanese on the west coast were a recently arrived group, in that 40%, including nearly all heads of household, were foreign born and did not even have American citizenship, and most of the rest were their immediate children, most of them still minors.

	The Japanese American Historical Society of San Diego
		The ethnic Japanese, small in number and with no political voice-the citizen generation was just reaching voting age in 1940-had become a convenient target for political demagogues, and over the years all the major parties indulged in anti-Japanese rhetoric and programs.
		This agitation attacked a number of ethnic Japanese cultural traits or patterns which were woven into a bogus theory that the ethnic Japanese could not or would not assimilate or become "American." Dual citizenship, Shinto, Japanese language schools, and the education of many ethnic Japanese children in Japan were all used as evidence.
		To conclude otherwise is to expect that children born of white parents on Japanese soil sever all racial affinity and become loyal Japanese subjects, ready to fight and, if necessary, to die for Japan in a war against the nation of their parents.

	The Internment of the Ethnic Japanese in WWII -- Military Justification?
		An ethnic Japanese excluded from Oahu would be taken to another Hawaiian island and restored to freedom their, where Japanese were so familiar that they would be well understood, even sympathized with.

	CHAPTER VIII
		Each ethnic group has its own cultural features, but it is indeed rare in the world that the Japanese not only “bring in” foreign cultures as they please, but also possess a clear-cut stand for tenaciously defending their own traditional culture.
		As the Japanese have long been of a single ethnic group and the emperors of Japan have always come from the same family, their ideology is relatively stable and their “soul” is relatively identical.
		With the strengthening Japanese national awareness and a swelling sense of superiority, Japanese traditional culture represented by Japanese spirit was crowned with the name of “spirit of national prestige” and given enormous publicity.

		Japanese American soldiers shot the lock of the main gate of the outer perimeter fences.
		Kawakita aided the Japanese military in numerous ways, both requested and not requested by the military personnel, and in the course and scope of giving aid to the Japanese, Kawakita abused the American prisoners.
		Of course the Japanese-American reparations movement constantly reminds the American people (at taxpayer expense) that ethnic Japanese colonies in Hawaii and on the West Coast were as red blooded American as any that had arrived in North America prior to the American Revolution.

	Power Line: Was the internment defensible?
		Ethnic Germans were not similarly situated to ethnic Japanese living on the West Coast.

	California Foreign Language Project: Research and Publications
		This fact is interesting to note in light of the large number of non ethnic Japanese students learning this language.
		We could speculate on one or two possibilities: (a) students who enroll in advanced foreign language classes enter high school with a level of motivation that is already very high; or (b) students enrolled in advanced classes show increased motivation because they are doing well, which reinforces their interest in foreign language study.
		Although there is no way to determine which of our explanations is the more plausible or how they might interact with ethnic heritage students learning their ancestral language, they are worth pursuing in future research on less commonly taught languages.

		I am a born and bred West Coaster, having lived all my life in a community that was greatly affected by the 1942 evacuation of ethnic Japanese from the military zones of the United States.
		Although the ethnic Japanese and ethnic Europeans had resolved this history in my community back in the 1950s, a new breed of activist types have jumped on the bandwagon regarding the evacuation.
		The latest is this: In my community the half-truths of the Japanese American reparations movement has done more to damage decades old friendships and acquaintances between ethnic Japanese and Europeans than Pearl Harbor ever did.
