compelling story of an amazing person, but it was still extremely graphic. The things that were in the book happen mostly in war. Reading about those things in a world where there are inappropriate jokes and things like rapes and thefts happening daily, this isn’t a book to read in school. One part that especially paints a bad image is close to the beginning of the book. Yoko Kawashima states that, “In the weeds was a Korean man on top of a girl. She was kicking wildly and screaming.

When Kennedy was president, trust in the government was at seventy-six percent, according to the article What We Lost with JFK: Trust in Our Government (Daily Kos). The largest number of voters in American history was in 1960 (The JFK Assassination and the Origin of Distrust in Government). Today, people do not care enough to vote for the candidates.
