A full cast of characters (both in the book format and the audiobook) of various Japanese American descendants as they document what life is like living in the U.S from 1942-1946 when placed in segregation and other camps. Also highlights Japanese Americans in Europe fighting enemy forces. Thought provoking and emotionally turbulent. Showcases how the U.S treated a marginalized community.
Graphic: Xenophobia
Moderate: War and Racism
Minor: Death and Racial slurs
