notes: label: Description
content: This photo is of a guard tower in the Rowher incarceration camp in Arkansas. There are barracks lined up behind the guard tower, and the picture was taken from the trees outside the camp. It's a typical scenery of the Japanese American imprisonment camp. Cameras were not initially allowed into the concentration camps, but eventually they were allowed, and prisoners took advantage of this and took lots of pictures like this documenting life and their environment.
