Winner, Carter G. Woodson Book Award * Winner, New-York Historical Society Children’s Book Prize * Winner, Social Justice Literature Award * Honor Title, Jane Addams Children’s Book Award * Finalist, 2017 Cybils Awards * Nominee, Georgia Children’s Book Award * Nominee, Rebecca Caudill Young Readers' Book Award * Nominee, South Carolina Junior Book Award * A Kirkus Best Book of the Year * An Association of Children's Librarians of Northern California Outstanding Title Now in paperback: The award-winning story of Fred Korematsu's fight for justice, acclaimed by School Library Journal as "an invaluable profile of a civil rights hero." Fred Korematsu liked listening to music on the radio, playing tennis, and hanging around with his friends—just like lots of other Americans. But everything changed when the United States was attacked by Japan in 1941 and the government forced all people of Japanese ancestry to leave their homes on the West Coast and move to distant prison camps. This included Fred, whose parents had immigrated to the United States from Japan many years before. But Fred refused to go. He knew that what the government was doing was unfair. And when he got put in jail for resisting, he knew he couldn't give up. The first book in Heyday's Fighting for Justice series and now in paperback, the story of Fred Korematsu's fight against discrimination explores the life of one courageous person who made the United States a fairer place for all Americans, and it encourages all of us to speak up for justice.
