Join us on Zoom for a drink and book discussion. We'll make a cocktail and then discuss They Called Us Enemy by George Takei (or bring a drink of your choice).

The e-book is available on Libby and the book is available at the library.

Summary: 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 a stunning graphic memoir, Takei revisits his haunting childhood in American concentration camps, as one of over 100,000 Japanese Americans imprisoned by the U.S. government during World War II. Experience the forces that shaped an American icon—and America itself—in this gripping tale of courage, country, loyalty, and love.

Zoom meeting details will be emailed to you when you register. Must be 21 or older.
