To learn about the human experience during internment.

Explanation:

Japanese internment was a very black experience in American History. Books have been written about it. I have lived in two such places where the Japanese (Canadians in my experience) were interred.

One was when I was an adult: New Denver British Columbia. I can tell you that things were not good there. The housing was poor (no insulation), which could hardly stand up to the cold wet winds that came off the lake.

The other was in Lethbridge, Alberta where the winds were dry but continuous and added to the freezing temperatures in winter.

Escape was impossible in both places. New Denver would require that you live off the land undetected for long periods of time. The Japanese did not have a background good enough to do that. And Lethbridge was no better: the prairies down there are very open. There's no where to hide or survive even if you knew how. You'd be easily spotted. And your diet would be non existant at best.

I've given you all this background so you would know why I picked what I picked.

I think the asker was trying to get at what it was really like to be interred with no hope of bettering yourself. The monotony must have driven most people crazy. So I would pick the third one down.
