c. Why do you think innocent people were interned?

Explanation:

The follow-up question should contain something that will direct the conversation to explain how is investigation ongoing. The dialog can make understand the process of internment. This question can be good because the answer can contain many reasons and situations where the Japanese were involved. The speaker can be in a position to tell about the circumstances of the internment and explain with more detail the position of the innocent people. She could give more information that is not exposed and gives a conclusion confirmed with examples and personal stories.
