the young people that had residence on the internment camps, but I admire the strength they had in attempting to have lifted spirits and not let anything get them down. Ultimately, I argue that even though the Japanese Americans were associated with Japan, they did not deserve the treatment they faced at interment camps, such as Minidoka in the western state of Idaho.
