You Receive Executive Order 9066

Executive Order 9066 is signed and you have just a few days until you will be taken from your home and taken to camp. You feel shocked, overwhelmed, and scared that this is happening. You have no idea how long you will be in camp, where you are going, or when you will be able to return home. You can only bring a handful of clothes and some basic household items.

What do you decide to do with the rest of your belongings?

This page has replies:
