=Japanese American Internment Camps:=

After the bombing of Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7, 1941, Americans became extremely suspicious of people with Japanese ancestry and thought that they would exploit the American government.

Different people have different perspectives on what should be done to the Japanese American people. Some people thought we should round up all Japanese American and place them into concentration camps and some believed that they should be left alone. What happened was Japanese American Internment camps, such as Heart Mountain in Cody, Wyoming.
