Japanese Internment in the USA

This website was created for SKBS3113 Worlds in Contact to highlight the lives of Japanese Americans who lived in the internment camps in the United States of America during the Second World War by comparing the short story, “The Legend of Miss Sasagawara”  by Hisaye Yamamoto with the historical document, “Japanese evacuation from the West coast, 1942: final report”.  The website documents the evacuation process, location and living conditions of the camps, recreational, religious and cultural activities that were practised by the Japanese Americans as they spent about three years living there.
