In this episode of "Accidentally Ethnic," Paul Eulette interviews Misako Envela, a digital creator and storyteller.

Living in Mexico later allowed her to rediscover and embrace both her Black and Japanese heritages. Through her podcast and professional work in social media strategy, Misako emphasizes resilience, community, and the importance of inclusive storytelling in today's digital landscape.

September 13, 2023 - Misako Rocks!

One thing we know for sure: overextending and exhausting ourselves is NOT it. On today's episode of We're Going To Get Through This, Misako shares how she wants to focus on doing one project at a time, versus trying to juggle multiple things at once. Being stressed and overwhelmed all the time is not the move, and when we're operating like this there isn't any space left to enjoy the process.

Junichiro Tanizaki (1886 – 1965) was a Japanese novelist born to a Tokyo merchant family. His work combined some of the best elements of modernism while tapping both Japanese and Western aesthetics. In ArtiFact #37, Alex Sheremet and Ruslan Gallopyn discuss Tanizaki's “Some Prefer Nettles” (1929), a novel depicting a dysfunctional open marriage and impending divorce which nonetheless might be averted. The book's dry humor, poetic descriptions, modern (especially by today's standards) psychology, and deft use of understatement allows Junichiro Tanizaki to develop some of his richest characters.

Kristan Kennedy is a Portland-based artist, curator, and educator.  She is the Artistic Director, Curator of Visual Art for the Portland Institute for Contemporary Art (PICA). For more than a decade, Kennedy has focused on commissioning new work by international emerging artists in the form of large-scale, site-specific installations and solo projects that exist at the borders of genres. Kennedy teaches in the Visual Studies MFA program at the Pacific Northwest College of Art (PNCA) Contemporary Art. Kennedy is represented by Fourteen30 Contemporary, Portland, Oregon. While the artist identifies as a painter, she also questions the history, process and medium that she is complicit in perpetuating. Curator and critic Stephanie Snyder says of Kennedy's paintings in Artforum, “their intense dialectic of beauty and repulsion mirrors the artist's philosophical struggles—we sense that both artist and artwork have gone through the wringer—together—to achieve a hard-won grace”. Recent exhibitions include Flat Fix, Halsey McKay Gallery, NY; Eyes, Ditch Projects, OR; Sunday, Crisp-Ellert Museum, FL; Kristan Kennedy Meets a Clock, Soloway, NY; Sleeper, Fourteen30 Contemporary, OR; OO, Misako & Rosen, Tokyo; Tomorrow, Tomorrow, CANADA and Other Colors, Fourteen30 Contemporary.

Sean is gone this week, but Vinnk found someone even better to step in and talk video games: his wife! Vinnk and Misako discuss her gamer past, and -- in a stunning reversal of what usually happens on Famicom Dojo -- Vinnk explains the Nintendo Entertainment System and North American gaming to someone who grew up only knowing the Famicom.

Sensei Siebuhr talks about the life of Hisako Nakamura (visit the link to see some of Misako's dolls, dolls she sewed with her mouth), a woman so severely handicapped that she brought Helen Keller to tears. Hisako suffered severe frostbite as a child and had to have all her limbs amputated. In spite of Misako's own severe handicaps she met a couple who she felt had endured an even harder life than her own. These are some of Hisako's reflections: "I have been guided by my handicaps. It is my helpless body that has made what I am now and I feel I am saved or spiritually elevated. God gave me my life - I have lived it through with gratitude!"
