Grandma was about ten years old during World War II . One day, one of Grandma's friends from Brownies, Hi, was gone. Hi and her family were at a prison camp that had barbed wire around it in a desert in Nervada- just because she had Japanese in her. Hi and her family eventually got out, but she had to live somewhere else because someone was living in their house. Grandma and her friends have never liked prejudice because of what happened to Hi.
