Stephen Colbert: Guest George Takei!
George Takei: This Heirloom Preserves The Memory Of My Family’s Internment During WWIIActivist, author and acting legend George Takei shares the gut-wrenching story of his family’s experience during WWII, when racism and war hysteria led the United States government to imprison 125,000 Japanese-Americans in internment camps.
His new book, “My Lost Freedom,” chronicles his family’s experience in a way that makes it easy for parents to teach their children about this dark period in America’s recent history.
