Podcasts about baye mcneil

In this episode of the Books on Asia podcast, Amy Chavez talks with Baye McNeil talk about being a black minority in Japan, Japanese views of black people, the "African Samurai," the arrival of Commodore Perry in 1854 (who brought a minstrel show with him who performed "blackface"), and some of the media's portrayals of black people in both the US and Japan. He cites the original Calpis beverage label with a blackface character and mentions tropes in Japanese television. He suggests Japanese change the way they tell stories and  use biracial people to represent black people rather than their own representations of black people. He also reflects on teaching English in Japan, the power of propaganda, and the idea of "American exceptionalism."As a writer, columnist, and activist, Baye McNeil writes about diversity and inclusiveness. McNeil is a columnist for The Japan Times (English) where he writes the monthly column called "Black Eye" about the African American experience living in Japan and also writes for Toyokeizai Online (Japanese) where he shares reflections on life and race, as well as profiling people of color who are reshaping Japan's cultural landscape. He is author of two previous books: Hi! My Name is Loco and I am a Racist and Loco in Yokohama, both of which offer accounts of life as a visible minority in Japan. His latest book is Words By Baye, Art By Miki: Crafting a Life Together with Affection, Creativity, and Resilience.Baye's favorite books on Japan are Shogun, Gaijin, and James Clavell's entire series.Be sure to check out Baye's bookWords By Baye, Art By Miki: Crafting a Life Together with Affection, Creativity, and Resilience available on Amazon.Visit him on social media at the following links:Website: www.bayemcneil.comAmazonGoodreadsFacebookLinkedInInstagram The Books on Asia Podcast is sponsored by Stone Bridge Press.

Baye McNeil is an author, columnist, teacher, and activist living in Tokyo, Japan. He has had a great influence on the media perception and labels used of international residents. Here we talk about some of Baye's articles and projects since our last talk in 2020. One of the articles on Toyokeizai was about changing labels from the color of a person's skin to the person's occupation or name is the best step forward, seeing and interacting with all individuals as people. We also talk about the translation of his book into Japanese and doing his audio book for "Hi My Name is Loco and I'm a Racist" Watch the video for this talk- https://youtu.be/4KQ6RSUoMJQ (part 1) + https://youtu.be/pgo7qZf7S-A (part 2) / https://youtu.be/mFRaNlAbiD0 (2020 Talk with Baye McNeil) **Support JJWalsh + Member Extras ** ~HAPPS~ https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbmoydEVVSWhIWWt2OWwwT29IazVlRmVPVEdHUXxBQ3Jtc0tudi0yRDJtVTNhZkdDWTZIdFFHUnVGRlI1VUJnVVhIb0ljVlBmMi15aWRRTjdxRkNxRzZFcm9nc3o1dUV4RHk0V3g0YlVfTkp3UFQwSmZ6V29mdXluT1FURVpHVFplUnE0WGNxb1ZROEdJSkY2eEUzTQ&q=https%3A%2F%2Fhapps.tv%2Finvite%2F%40JJWalsh%E2%80%8B%E2%80%8B (https://happs.tv/invite/@JJWalsh​​)​ ~BuyMeACoffee~ https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbldMazlyZjZlN0M3OFh6cDJKeVBvZXZVLVk0UXxBQ3Jtc0tuZWRoUFFQdVJUdU9TZDZ6TUNEbHU3azJNak0yNTlfbWFURlExTk9zRENKOFpza3d2SDBJT21nSzliSlFYYXNQU0dRZVNlT2IwaHhSNGotSEVsbmFOb0pZb1NTbm02YkdKQkVfV1BqaUY1NDhvRk5HZw&q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.buymeacoffee.com%2Fjjwalsh%E2%80%8B%E2%80%8B (https://www.buymeacoffee.com/jjwalsh​​)​ ~Patreon~ https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqa29WZ2pLTHBqd2x5djJCQUZvS1Z0WjJHTlBpZ3xBQ3Jtc0ttR2k3LVFRd0QtTU5ZSWVsNnJLYzlxT2hzbjc4Vm82bEpOUXlBSnRPNENYdndHWVB6Wkh0MXJCM3hON1d1a29aSkRoQW1kVzZmNncyOXFGMVdvSHRPNkNOWTg3dWZ4cDNUTWtQbGdtTkU1WWFaU2JwYw&q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.patreon.com%2Fjjwalsh%E2%80%8B%E2%80%8B (https://www.patreon.com/jjwalsh​​) JOIN the support team on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbjRdeieOLGes008y_I9y5Q/join (YouTube Memberships ) SoundCloud sourced BGM thanks to Hikosaemon Support this podcast

Introducing Baye McNeil, the legend of black self-esteem. ‘When you have healthy self esteem and you see everyone as your equal, you approach the world differently' I have to be honest that I was a bit nervous - a little starstruck interviewing Baye. I had been waiting for Baye for a year - I really wanted to do the video interview with him because he is such a star but a year on and with the pandemic still in play I just bit the bullet because Baye sounds good in May - catchy. You can kinda tell that I was a bit in awe when we start AND I keep saying his name wrong. I AM SO SORRY BAYE. In my head is was Baye like May - IT IS NOT, it is Ba-Ye like Kanye. Please adjust your mind voice to Baye's Senegalese name. And once again to Baye - thank you for correcting me over and over as I revelled in being in your presence. I am shouting at the screen as I am watching myself make this mistake repeatedly. Baye is a high-profile writer; columnist in Japan Times' Black Eye, author of TWO best-selling books “Hi My Name is Loco and I am a Racist” and “Loco in Yokohama”. I can't even tell you how many other things Baye has done - listen in and visit his website, linked below. Baye is charming, funny, serious, and fascinating - he opened my world up in the first 5 minutes of this interview. It is my opinion that Baye will go down in history as a great influencer and activist in Japan who changed the course of Japanese history, not only for people of African and Japanese-African descent but so many more people. He opens up minds to what is going on and encourages the good questions. His writing is brilliant and straightforward; generous and rich. He is a presence. I loved every minute of Baye talking to me - we debated language use and he told me his preferred terms for bad practice when we discussed his part in the rectification of the Naomi Osaka Nissin whitewashing debacle. There are layers and layers of depth and discussion in this interview and I implore you to listen to every last second as Baye keeps delivering more and more wisdom, information, history and humour. He really is terrific company! BY THE WAY - we talk of two McMillans - Terri McMillan - Tokyo based creative and technology legend and Terry McMillan - US based legendary author.

Some Japanese folks are telling foreigners not to bring their racial problems into Japan. Baye McNeil joins us in wondering if by "racial problems" they mean that new Nike commercial, or our children.

News editor Joel Tansey discusses the impact of Naomi Osaka’s support for the Black Lives Matter movement both in the U.S. and Japan, and what a new wave of activism in sports might mean for next summer's Tokyo Olympics.
