"The Poet and the Silk Girl" by Satsuki Ina (2024) is a powerful memoir of her parents' lives during their incarceration and imprisonment during World War II, and an insightful record of intergenerational trauma and healing through protest and allyship with the vulnerable. Dr. Ina's work with Tsuru for Solidarity continues in support of migrants and against detention and deportation. Review by Ravi Chandra.
