From the Paper:

This study will examine racism as it is experienced by Japanese-Americans in the United States. The specific approach of the study will be to focus on racism against Japanese-Americans as a means for other Americans to relieve their various frustrations and uncertainties through a psychology of exclusion and domination.

What James Baldwin in his essay "Stranger in the Village" says about white prejudice against blacks can be very easily applied to white prejudice against Japanese-Americans. Baldwin writes that "The idea of white supremacy rests simply on the fact that white men are the creators of civilization (the present civilization, which is the only one that matters; all previous civilizations are simply 'contributors' to our own) and are therefore civilization's guardians and defenders."
