Question

fill in the blank!

Answer 1

The internment camps were not concentration camps in any sense. First, people could leave the internment camps with supervision, and many left permanently. There was ample food, the huts, though austere, were adequate, and the residents were not beaten, tortured and executed.

The whole thing was a racially motivated fiasco, and a dark chapter in US history, but they were not comparable to the camps in Germany like Dachau, Belsen, and the others. Exactly how many pictures of human bodies piled outside the internment camps have you seen?

Answer 2

Internment camps

Answer 3

First off, those detention centers were not on remote islands, they were in Montana, California, Oregon, and other inland sites. And they simply were called "Detention Centers".

Answer 4

most americans know it as internment camps, but that's just a better way of saying "concentration camps". they were, but concentration camps are mainly associated with Jews in Nazi-occupied parts of Europe. So either one, actually.

Answer 5

I think you mean "inland" not "island". They were variously called internment camps or relocation camps. Their were also more temporary "assembly centers".

Answer 6

there was a special on ww2 a few nights ago. i think they called them detention camps. nice way of saying concentration camps.
