Why did People Decide to Leave Japan? Push Factors In 1854, the United States and Japan signed a treaty of trade, peace, and friendship. This treaty opened Japanese harbors to American ships. The Japanese government spent a lot of money to make their schools, businesses, and army more modern which led to unemployment, bankruptcies, and civil disorders. The people were also charged with high taxes. Many people left Japan because they could not pay the taxes. Natural disasters also caused the Japanese to leave.

Why Choose America? The Japanese immigrated to the Unites States (mainly Hawaii) because there was more job opportunity Many worked on the sugarcane or pineapple plantations Medical care and living conditions were better Hope for a new life, jobs, freedom

What Japanese Immigrants Anticipated Work—gain wealth by working in the Hawaiian plantations Opportunity to provide food for their families Security, education and better medical care Men immigrated first, leaving wives and children at home, hoping to earn money and return home http://www.freefoto.com/preview/1216-02-59/Statue-of-Liberty--New-York-New-York-Hotel--Las-Vegas--Nevada--USA

Japanese immigrants arriving at Angel Island Getting to America From 1885 to 1924, about 180,000 Japanese immigrants came to the United States Japanese immigrants had their own neighborhoods in the poorer parts of U.S. cities, such as Los Angeles, California http://teacher.scholastic.com/activities/immigration/tour/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Davao_Japantown_in_1930s.JPG Japanese immigrants arriving at Angel Island Japantown forms

What America Was Really Like When You Arrived Many people worked as farmworkers, railroad workers and miners Early Japanese immigrants were not allowed to become U.S. citizens or to own land Many Americans did not like the Japanese because of their skin color and how they looked. In 1924, the United States changed their laws to stop all immigration from Japan. After Japan attacked Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, in 1941, the United States entered World War II. Because so many Japanese Americans were living in the U.S., they were forced to live in camps where they stayed until the end of the war. Pearl Harbor is where the naval forces were located. Bombing of Hiroshima at the end of World War II in 1945 (in an attempt to end the war). Anyone ever read Sadako?
