COMPARE AND CONTRAST OF JEWISH AND JAPANESE CAMPS

WHY THE CAMPS STARTED

• Internment camps started because Japan bombed Pearl Harbor.
• The U.S government felt that it was necessary relocate Japanese Americans.
• Concentration camps started because Hitler did not like Jewish people.

SPORTS THEY DID IN THE CAMPS

• In the camps the Japanese played baseball and football.
• Other high schools came to the camps to play a football game.
• The jewish did not play any sports.
• But the kids played games such as "Gas Chamber"

FOOD IN THE CAMPS

• For breakfast the Jewish were given coffee
• For lunch the Jewish were given watery soup
• For Dinner the Jewish may have been given a small peice of bread or cheese
• Many Jewish died from starvation
• The Japanese were fed mostly potatoes and bread

HOW MANY PEOPLE WERE SENT TO THE CAMPS

• 120,000 Japanese were sent to internment camps
• 30,00 Jewish people were arrested amd sent to concentration camps

These 2 camps were horrible and hopefully the world uses these camps as an example so we don't repeat them.
