Under Executive Order 9066, the military could A. remove people considered a threat from their homes. More specifically, Executive Order 9066 allowed from the creation of internment camps, which were used to house Japanese Americans relocated from the Pacific Coast during World War II. This was done based on a racialized fear that those Japanese Americans (many of whom had lived in the US for generations and owned small businesses) would sabotage US military efforts in the Pacific.
