Heart Mountain AR

What a wonderful addition to this site giving visitors thousands of hours of personal site interpretation

This app adds so much the experience of visiting this confinement site. The Heart Mountain Interpretive Center shares the experiences of the former incarcerees during WWII from their perspectives and this app enhances that experience by giving guided tours from oral histories of the former incarcerees standing in the very spots where the events took place. Highly recommend to any visitors to the site and to anyone interested in this history, so important for everyone to learn about the Japanese American incarceration.

This app shares first-person stories told by incarcerated Japanese Americans and their ancestors. They’re great vignettes to experience the social and cultural world of Heart Mountain and immerse yourself in their lives in the internment camp. As a Japanese American myself, I especially appreciate that this app exists to tell this history in such a human way.

An excellent and artistic presentation. Was inspired to learn more about the tragic history.

Outstanding recreation of life in the Japanese internment camps. Through a series of vignettes based on historical facts, recollections and specific events, Jonathan Amakawa captures the poignant and heartbreaking stories of individuals incarcerated at Heart Mountain.

This is a great app it is historical and fun for kids like me
