After the war, Japanese Americans faced unfair treatment compared to their white neighbors. Many people thought they were dangerous and untrustworthy, so they lost their homes, businesses, and even personal belongings while they were interned. This showed how much prejudice and hate still existed, making it very hard for Japanese Americans to rebuild their lives and be treated equally.
