Camp Harmony Question

6. From my point of view, it was appropriate of Sone to hope that Camp Harmony could be called by that name. It was because that when they were living in America, they were shunned by the Americans just because they were Japanese. Sone's family couldn't even get an American passport to be a citizen because the family's ancestors were originally Japanese. On page 520, second paragraph, lines 26 to 30, it proved that the family was miserable. Also on line 33 to 36, the author said that their family were alien residents of the U.S. than the Japanese. So what was the point of still living in the U.S. when they were being shunned and given a fake passport? In conclusion, it was an appropriate action to hope that the camp would be Camp Harmony so that they can get rid of what they've been through.
