Both books, The Bracelet and Geronimo were about two different cultural groups that were forced to relocate. In The Bracelet, Emi and her family were forced out of their home and into a japanese internment camp even though they had done nothing wrong and were citizens of this country. In Geronimo the Apaches were forced off of their land and relocated to various places. In both stories the people who are being punished and taken from their homes are not criminals, and have done nothing to deserve the treatment they encountered. Because of fear and intolerance both cultures suffered.
