The marriage for men or women were happened because of the social rank or to expand the family. It was the during the war when women were recognized to be good and helpful when it comes to working.

 * The Question of Japanese Americans**

How did the vietnam war affect US (economically, politically, militarically, etc)

As the threat of a red wave was surging towards South Vietnam, the United States, under the banner of containment had to intervene strategically and eventually militarily in what was a civil war. Beginning with the Gulf of Tonkin incident, the U.S., got actively involved in the war. The Tet Offensive, however, showed the determination and tenacity of North Vietnam and altered America's strategy in Vietnam to one of "Vietnamization," that is, the gradual withdrawal from Vietnam. The war had an indelible impact on U.S. politics, society and foreign relations that forever changed the attitudes of Americans. Americans were deeply divided over the U.S. government’s justification for, and means of, fighting, the war. Opposition to the war contributed to the counterculture youth movement of the 1960s and played a huge role in channeling youth cynicism toward actions of the government.

Even though some races think they are superior, it does not mean that those people can treat others differently. For example, when U.S. having democracy as their diplomacy, US have to give everybody equal rights. In jobs, the company has to give everyone equal opportunities without looking at their race, religion, gender or even handicaps.
 * Is it ever justifiable to that people differently based on race, religion, gender, handicaps, etc?**
