“We were literally ordered out of our home at gunpoint.”

George Takei stopped by The Daily Show to promote the upcoming documentary, To Be Takei. Rather than discuss Takei's relationship with his husband or being on Star Trek, host John Stewart asked the veteran actor about his family's time in a Japanese-American internment camp during World War II. What ensues is probably one of the most emotional and heart wrenching interviews ever on The Daily Show.

Watch the aired segment of the interview above and the extended interview here.
