Absolutely everyone should read this book. It discusses a terrible part of US History that many aren't taught, and that the current political climate feels doomed to repeat.

This was fantastic! It should be required reading in all schools. We should never forget this shameful part of our history.

A wonderful graphic novel telling the first-hand account of American history that too many people still don't know about. I am grateful for Takei's willingness to share so much of himself and his family's life in America so we can all continue to see others as the humans they are deserving of respect and dignity.
