Scary how the past repeats itself... loved the way this took the perspective of a teen of today a single election in the future and let you see through her Muslim American agnostic eyes what a Japanese American teen may have felt in WW2. it would make a good movie.

too true. now to apply the wisdom ...

should be required reading for medical school... gets a bit too scientific for the layperson briefly and too quick to expect explanation for things that work despite being unexplained... but it's a wonderful start.
