Gatehouse at Manzanar, most famous of the ten concentration camps, or "relocation centers" built to house Japanese-Americans and Japanese aliens during the Second World War. Nearly 120,000 people, two-thirds of them U.S. citizens, were removed from their homes, primarily on the west coast, to the camps inland. When I was a kid, riding up U.S. 395 to a camping or hiking trip in the Sierras, these gatehouses were the most visible parts of what remained of the camp. Manzanar has since become a National Historic Site, with an interpretive center housed in the camp's former auditorium and reconstructed barracks with exhibits documenting the lives of the internees.
