The life in a Japanese-American internment camp in New Mexico was like this: Many internees grew their own camp food, many internees responded to their situation by practicing their professions to serve the camp (ex: dentistry, carpentry, etc.), and in the camps, Japanese-Americans were treated as prisoners of war and resident aliens.

It was a tough time for Japanese-Americans. During World War II, United States President Franklin D. Roosevelt had ordered the construction of these camps to have direct control over the Japanese in America. The first one was in Manzanares, California.

These prisoners' camps in New Mexico were four. One in Fort Stanton, the other in Santa Fe, another in Old Raton Ranch, and the last one in Lordsburg.

Historians think that by 1942, 6,000 Japanese lived in these New Mexico's camps.
