This week, we celebrate the life and story of one of Trek’s most important figures: George Takei. George tells the incredible and sobering story of his time in a Japanese relocation camp and the racism and discrimination his family faced after World War II is his graphic novel “They Called Us Enemy”. On this episode, we talk about the novel, George’s story, and why it’s more relevant than ever today.
