I've just finished reading They Called Us Enemy by George Takei. I've had that book on my to be read shelf for some time, waiting for the moment when I felt up to the emotional impact. What an insightful work! WOW!
It's about how the US government rounded up US citizens of Asian descent (including Takei's family) and incarcerated them in order to "protect" the US during WW2. Of course it left me angry with the US government, but in that it's timely. The current administration is already recreating internment camps.
I can't recommend it highly enough.
