Manzanar is a former internment camp in California, USA where during World War II, over 110,000 Japanese Americans were forcibly relocated and detained by the U.S government. The camp was one of ten such camps where Japanese Americans were held throughout the western United States. The conditions in the camps were often harsh and the internees were subject to discrimination, harassment, and loss of property. The internment of Japanese Americans during World War II is widely considered to be a violation of civil rights and a dark chapter in American history. The Manzanar War Relocation Center was one of the camps that was in operation from 1942 to 1945. Today, the site is a National Historic Site, which serves as a reminder of the injustice that was committed against Japanese Americans during World War II.
