Just 75 years ago, the American government did something that most would consider unthinkable today: it rounded up over 100,000 of its own citizens based on nothing more than their ancestry and, suspicious of their loyalty, kept them in concentration camps for the better part of four years. Here, readers will be introduced to people like Mine Okubo, a Japanese American artist who spent years in the camps as a young woman and later depicted their nightmarish conditions in her work. They’ll also meet Daniel Inouye, a Japanese American soldier who earned a Purple Heart for his service to America in the war-only to be refused a haircut in San Francisco upon his return.
