United States, the Supreme Court ruled that a. persons of Japanese descent would be deported after the war. b. the internment of Japanese-Americans was illegal. c. the internment of people of Japanese descent was not based on race. d. persons of multiple Asian races would be considered Japanese and therefore, could be relocated to internment camps.

The correct answer is C) the internment of people of Japanese descent was not based on race.

In the Supreme Court’s decision in Korematsu v. the United States, the Court said that Korematsu was not a spy but could not be granted equal rights.

The Court voted 6 to 3, and the decision was written by Justice Black. The decision was that the evacuation order that the citizen Korematsu had violated was valid. It was found that the order had no racial intentions. The order was a valid measure to keep the United States safe during war times, especially the Pacific West.
