This book is really well-written and very interesting. It tells the story of how George Takei's family was moved into internment camps during WW2. One of the most strange things about reading this book is that I had no idea these camps existed before reading it. I know there is a marker right where I live, but I never knew what it meant. It is scary how visually similar this book is to Maus when it depicts camps.

The end of this book is a hard conversation about being a patriotic American, exercising democratic rights, and being persecuted by the institutions that you are a part of. The imagery of this book really helps drive these points home. It really made me think about what it will be like to live in Trump's America if he wins the next election, because this book was published in 2016, and really looks at immigration,
