The Journal of Ben Uchida: Citizen 13559 Mirror Lake Internment Camp, California, 1942 by Barry Denenberg

I read this after seeing the play at Seattle Children's Theatre. Parts of it were very different - liberties to make the play smoother and with a smaller cast, I'm sure. Both were amazing and heartbreaking. It's hard to believe that we are doing something similar today when everyone is so horrified by this piece of our history. So much for learning from it. 60 years from now they are going to look back on this "family separation" and wonder why we didn't do more.
