They Called Us Enemy by Justin Eisinger, Steven Scott, George Takei
4.5
emotional informative inspiring reflective fast-paced

I picked this up because I recognized the name on the cover and when I put it down I had a completely new appreciation for what minority groups have had to suffer in the past. 
I spent some time in the last year's learning about LGBTQIA+ history, and it felt right to continue that by finding a novel about cultural differences and racial prejudices without even having looking for it. When I plucked this book from the shelf I don't know why I didn't put it down like I do most others, but I'm glad that I did not. I recommend the read to anyone. I couldn't put it down until I'd finished the whole thing.
