Japanese Internment Camps

SOCIAL IMPACT
Most of the Japanese were negatively impacted by the internment camps. Lots of people suffered and lost their homes, businesses, and dignity. One positive outcome for some internees was that after they were released they spread out across the U.S., which helped to ease the racism and discrimination that they experienced on the West coast. Today, Japanese-Americans have all the rights of Caucasian Americans. They are all treated equally. They do the same things as everyone else, like playing sports, going to school, working, and more. It almost seems like the past has been forgotten, but many still remember the darker days of early Japanese American history. We should never forget this turning point in history.
