They Called Us Enemy

Beautifully told and beautifully rendered. I'm familiar with George Takei as an internet personality more than for anything else, as Star Trek was never my thing, but have always been impressed with his storytelling, and this stands true in his graphic memoir about his family's internment during World War II as Japanese Americans. Absolutely wonderful book about a horrible injustice in U.S. history, and I appreciate Takei's implications (through graphic representation) and outright statements (through court cases) that we as a country have absolutely not learned any kind of lesson from his experience, or those of the other 120,000 Japanese Americans that were affected. (I guess one plus is that those who were interred got reparations, just 40+ years after the fact.)
