What looks the same? What looks different? The first image was taken in 1942, that\u2019s about 80 years ago. This was a Japanese internment camp. Japanese internment camps forced anyone who was Japanese living in the United States to suddenly be arrested and live in these camps. Many Japanese families were ripped away from the homes they knew, and they were treated terribly in the camps, which all caused a lot of stress and illnesses.&nbsp;<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span>This was ordered to be done by the President at the time \u2014 Franklin D. Roosevelt. The United States government built these camps during World War II, when Japan dropped bombs on Pearl Harbor, a U.S. military base in Honolulu, Hawaii.&nbsp;<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span>The U.S. government incarcerated \u2014 that means, to put into prison \u2014 over 21,000 people of Japanese ancestry. Even Japanese-Americans, who were rightfully U.S. citizens. Japanese and Japanese-Americans were arrested without any evidence and without any warning. Japanese people and all Asian people were experiencing a lot of racism. That\u2019s like bullying someone for having a different skin color. And they were being told that they don\u2019t belong in the United States.&nbsp;<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span>This is becoming worse and worse for Asian people living in the U.S. at this time, especially Japanese people. The camps were finally closed in 1946 \u2014 four years later. Many Japanese people living in the U.S. and Japanese-Americans are still heartbroken and angry about how the U.S. government treated them.&nbsp;<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span>Today, many of them are speaking out against the U.S. government using old Japanese concentration camps to detain families that are crossing the Mexican and U.S. border to escape violence in other countries. And to find safety for their family here in the U.S.&nbsp;<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span>In detention centers, families are often separated, there aren\u2019t enough beds or room for everyone, and the food and bathrooms are in terrible condition. Very similar to the terrible conditions Japanese internment camps were in.&nbsp;<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span>Fortunately, Japanese people in the U.S. continue to speak up for respect and fair treatment of all people. Including the people being detained at the border now. This is another example of how Asian and Pacific Islander people have come together with other communities to speak up for human rights and justice for all.&nbsp;<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span>According to the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/campus\/elementary-school-lecture-compares-immigrant-detention-at-southern-border-to-japanese-internment-during-wwii\/\"><span>Washington Free Beacon<\/span><\/a><span>, Anne Arundel County Public Schools has an issue with promoting left-wing ideology in the classroom.
