I found this quote by Earl Warren to be a really interesting reflection of one of the book's major goals. When I read this I was thinking about how I could use this in a potential lesson plan about Japanese Internment during WWII. Maybe someone else will find this useful as well.
Earl Warren, the attorney general of California explained this policy by commenting that “We believe that when we are dealing with the Caucasian race we have methods that will test the loyalty of them. . . . But when we deal with the Japanese we are in an entirely different field and cannot form any opinion that we believe to be sound.” (Impossible Subjects Pg. 176)
