What was the outcome of Franklin Delano Roosevelt's establishment of the War Relocation Authority?

The establishment of the War Relocation Authority (WRA) by Franklin Delano Roosevelt during World War II resulted in the forced internment of Japanese Americans. This decision was made in response to fears of espionage and sabotage after the attack on Pearl Harbor. Consequently, over 120,000 Japanese Americans, many of whom were U.S. citizens, were removed from their homes and placed in internment camps for the duration of the war. The government's justification was largely based on race and suspicion, leading to significant violations of civil liberties. This action has since been recognized as a grave injustice and a dark chapter in American history, highlighting the consequences of wartime hysteria and prejudice.
