HIS 4900 – Capstone - The World War II incarceration of Japanese Americans Class: 26774 Section: ETRA Days & Times: TuTh 2:30-3:45 Instructor: Charlotte Brooks Instruction Mode: In Person Prerequisites: Two 3000-level history classes 3 hours, 3 credits During World War II, the US government incarcerated without hearing or trial the 120,000 people of Japanese ancestry living on the West Coast. Two-thirds were citizens, one-third immigrants who at that time could not become US citizens because of their race. Commonly known as the “Japanese American internment," the incarceration is of enduring interest to historians and non-historians alike and has particular resonance in our own time. After reading a considerable amount of scholarship about the incarceration and its aftermath, students will conduct primary source research on some aspect of it and write a substantial, original paper about their topic. The course will also examine how and where to do this research, how to structure and write a research paper, and how to preserve academic integrity.
