Both Japanese-Americans and the groups targeted in the Holocaust (Jews, Homosexuals, Gypsies, people with disabilities, etc.) were both targeted and harmed by the government and their belief that they were not "good people" or needed to be watched for "the good of the people" in the country. Japanese-Americans and minorities in the Holocaust were both taken to camps and forced to stay. In America, the Japanese-American people taken as inmates were watched and worked, but there was not any mass murder. In the Holocaust, there were labor and murder/death camps that the minorities were taken to and treated horribly by the Nazis. They were tortured and worked to the extent of their physical ability (and even pushed past it) and were not fed or given water. Both groups were treated as if they were not people and did not belong in the world.
