Denied, Deported Summary

Both chapter four of Denied, Detained, Deported and Guantanamo Bay deal with the topic of imprisoning foreigners, but they do so in different ways. In the book Denied, Detained, Deported they talk about the Japanese internment camps. One difference from the Japanese internment camps and Guantanamo Bay is that, they happened in different time frames. Stated in the DDD,"Japanese internment camps began in 1942 and ended in 1945." In Denied Detained Deported it mentions that, "After the news she shared the fears of the Japanese-American community, that because they looked like the enemy, they will be treated like the enemy." This just proves that just because some Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor, Americans began to assume the worst in those who were Japanese or looked as if they were
A well known similarity is that people held in both the Japanese internment camps and Guantanamo Bay we're both held against their will. The internment of Japanese-Americans in the United States was that Japanese-Americans were forced to relocate to camps made by the United States. "Sixty-two percent of the internees were loyal United States citizens." (Denied, Detained, Deported, chapter four.) In Q&A: Obama again looks at pledge to close Guantanamo prison it states that, "When the first detainees arrived, they were housed in wire enclosures that looked like the backyard dog kennel." That just shows that in both situations, those involved were held against their will and could not do anything about it. Another similarity is that,in both situations, the plan was never to intentionally or purposefully kill. "Internment camps were supposed to portray japanese everyday lifestyle." (DDD, chapter four.) The government gave families one room living
