Ringkasan :George Takei has captured
hearts and minds worldwide with
his captivating stage presence
and outspoken commitment to
equal rights. But long before
he braved new frontiers in Star
Trek, he woke up as a four-year-
old boy to find his own birth
country at war with his father's
and their entire family
forced from their home into an
uncertain future.
-
In 1942, at the order of President
Franklin D. Roosevelt, every
person of Japanese descent
on the west coast was rounded
up and shipped to one of ten
"relocation centers," hundreds
or thousands of miles from
home, where they would be held
for years under armed guard.
They Called Us Enemy is Takei's
firsthand account of those years
behind barbed wire, the joys
and terrors of growing up under
legalized racism, his mother's
hard choices, his father's faith in
democracy, and the way those
experiences planted the seeds
for his astonishing future.
