Description

Japanese Americans were housed in military style barracks with communal bathroom and meal facilities. Because much of concentration camp life was communal, leading everyone to be with friends rather than family, this weakened their own immediate family bonds. Photographed by Dorothea Lange, this photo was captured in Manzanar, CA, July 1942.
