Slide 1 –Katie- The Story of Yumi Ogawa

Slide 2 –Hannah-My name is Yumi Ogawa, and I used to live, happily, in Ney York with my family. Until one day, I got a knock on the door. The FBI was standing there, and told my whole family that we were going to go to different internment camps.

Slide 3 –Katie- We had to be taken to these camps because President Roosevelt signed Executive Order 9066, on February 19, 1942, which stated that all people of Japanese ancestry had to be taken to these special camps.

Slide 4 –Hannah-When I arrived at the internment camp, I kept hearing all of these radio reports that stated that a huge group of Japanese-Americans had been taken to different internment camps on a train. The reports said that we were the biggest group to be taken to an internment camp at one time

Slide 5-Katie-Life in the internment camp was hard because of the crazy temperatures and the rattlesnakes.
