I loved that Kiku Hughes' graphic novel was inspired by Octavia Butler (I saw a whole lot of Kindred in there, especially the graphic novel edition). I resonated with Kiku's own split identity - being mixed race and not feeling a connection with her Japanese American ancestry - especially with her comments on only learning about the camp through her own school projects (check) and neither or mother's or her generation knowing any of the Japanese language (check). I also really appreciated Hughes' discussion on how the reassimilation of Japanese Americans after the camps was used to push the "model minority" during the Civil Rights Movement. So many Issei and Nisei supported that myth because "they wanted to be seen as the "good minority," even to the extent that they were willing to participate in Anti-Black racism" (251). I've read a lot of stories and accounts of the incarceration camps (Hughes' preferred term, which I like) and this one stands out in a good way. The graphic novel format simplifies it and yet lands punches in a particularly interesting and evocative way. It's time travel-y, historical fiction vibe was cool too, again having a different approach to talking about the camps.
