Community and cultural coverage, music and calendar, new visions and voices, coming to you with an Asian Pacific Islander point of view. It's time to get on board the Apex Express. Jalena Keane-Lee: [00:00:34] Good evening. You're tuned in to Apex Express. We are bringing you an Asian and Asian American perspective from the Bay and around the world we're your hosts, Miko Lee and Jalena Keane-Lee, the PowerLeeGirls, a mother daughter team. Tonight we're focused on the annual Day of Remembrance. February 19th is a significant date for the Japanese American community. On this day in 1942, president Franklin D. Roosevelt signed executive order 9066, which gave the United States army the authority to remove civilians from their homes during World War 2. Over 120,000 Japanese Americans and 3,000 Japanese Latin Americans were forced into concentration camps scattered in desolate, remote regions of the country. No Japanese Americans or Latin Americans wherever charged of espionage or sabotage against the United States. Yet they were targeted, rounded up and imprisoned for years. Every February, the Japanese American community commemorates Executive Order 9066 as a reminder of the impact the incarceration experience has had on our families, our community and our country. During this present time of genocide in Palestine, it is critical to educate others on the fragility of civil liberties in times of crisis and the importance of remaining vigilant in protecting the rights and freedoms of all. Never again, means never again for anyone. Jalena Keane-Lee: [00:01:59] Next up, listen to “Kenji” by Fort minor, the band created by Linkin Park's Mike Shinoda. This is a song about Mike's father and his family that was incarcerated at Manzanar. SONG Jalena Keane-Lee: [00:05:42] That was Mike Shinoda's “Kenji” based upon his family story at Manzanar. Miko Lee: [00:05:47] Welcome Jeff Matsuoka, chair of the San Francisco Bay Area Organizing Committee of the Day of Remembrance. Welcome to Apex Express. Jeff Matsuoka: [00:05:56] Thank you very much, Miko. It's great to be here. Thanks for inviting me. Miko Lee: [00:05:59] For people that don't know, can you give an overview about what the Day of Remembrance is all about? Jeff Matsuoka: [00:06:07] Sure. Yes. The Day of Remembrance is an annual event that we've been holding actually now for 45 years. This would be our 45th Day of Remembrance event and really what it's commemorating is the signing of EO9066. This is an executive order signed by President Franklin Dela Roosevelt on February 19th, 1942. And essentially what this did was it essentially empowered the military authorities, the US Army authorities, to essentially evict all Japanese Americans living in what's called the West Coast Evacuation Zones. So once again, this is right after Pearl Harbor, and what what was happening was the government feared basically Japanese Americans as collaborators with, of course, the Japanese and of course, there's no evidence as it turns out that was true, but nonetheless what happened was all citizens are all really inhabitants of Japanese ancestry, whether they were citizens or not, were evicted from their homes on the West Coast and sent to concentration camps deep in the Midwest or certainly very far away from the coast. And they said it was for our own safety, but of course there are a lot of factors there that were probably beyond safety that caused all this to happen. Of course, there's a lot of racism and a lot of also discrimination against Japanese Americans. And the bombing of Pearl Harbor and, of course, the signing of Executive Order 9066 resulted in the evacuation of our community, and it served many different purposes. One of, one being that, of course, it created, it served economic purpose for the people who did not want to see Japanese workers, Japanese American workers, for instance, competing for jobs. So there's a lot of, there's a lot of factors behind that, but the end result was that the civil rights of Japanese Americans were trampled on and they were evicted from their homes and they essentially spent the rest of the war sitting in these concentration camps far away from home. And of course, is this injustice that we want to remember every year for the Day of Remembrance. Of course, the other factor of the story as well is that, of course, we also celebrate redress. Of course redress didn't happen until, the 70s and 80s, but eventually Japanese Americans gained redress through the signing of the Civil Liberties Act of [1988], and by that, time, of course, many of the evacuees had passed away, but nonetheless, for those who were still alive at the time, they were entitled to a, to monetary compensation and a apology, actually, from the government for their unjust incarceration during the war. So we also want to lift that up as well, in that it was a celebration, it's a commemoration of the fact that we were in fact compensated by the government for that injustice. Miko Lee: [00:08:46] Jeff, can you share a little bit about your personal connection with the incarceration? Jeff Matsuoka: [00:08:52] My mother's family actually were Japanese Peruvians. They actually lived in Lima, Peru, which of course is the capital of Peru. And a little known, part of the whole sort of Japanese evacuation. I also reached down to South America and my mother's family, I predict my grandfather was actually taken by by the FBI from Peru, and they, were interned in a, separate system of camps called the Department of Justice camps, and they ended up in Crystal City, Texas, which was a maximum security concentration camp run by The Immigration Naturalization service. So my connection is a little bit different from those whose ancestors were born or who lived here in the United States itself. Since my family actually were, From peru. And they only spoke Spanish and Japanese. They didn't really speak English when they came here. Miko Lee: [00:09:39] Jeff, thank you so much for sharing a piece of the story of Japanese Latin Americans that were incarcerated. I talked about that at the beginning of the episode, over 3,000 Japanese Latin Americans, and we actually have a whole episode and a curriculum that's based on that in our series, Never Again. So I'll put a link to that in the show notes. Jeff, can you also talk about your experience growing up with the Day of Remembrance? What was the first one you attended? Now you're the chair and you've been the chair for a bit, but what was your first Day of Remembrance and how does that stick in with your family history? Jeff Matsuoka: [00:10:17] I actually attended what's called the Peru Kai Reunions. These were reunions of many of the Peruvian Japanese who were kidnapped from their countries, and they had reunions, interestingly enough. But my first really day of remembrance didn't really come until maybe around, 2010, our San Francisco Bay Area Day of Remembrance, the, one of the, one of the groups that are always represented is the Japanese Latin Americans, that's how I got involved with learning more about the Bay Area Day of Remembrance. I got involved somewhat late but nonetheless, after I understood about what's going on, what happened basically in the United States itself that really piqued my interest to see whether, we could tell the story, to the American public, because I think this is a really, very important, story that Japanese Americans and Japanese Latin Americans can tell to the American experience here. Miko Lee: [00:11:06] Every year there's a different theme, and in every area there's a different theme. This year we're focused on the Bay Area with you, and the theme for this year is Carrying the Light for Justice – Finding Our Way Home. Can you share a little bit about where that theme came from, and what does it mean to you? Jeff Matsuoka: [00:11:23] Yes. We want to actually talk about the injustices that were wrought on Japanese Americans, as well as, the redress which was a, which tried to correct those injustices. I think another part of DOR is, our experience as Japanese Americans having been, incarcerated unjustly and having also won redress from the government for those injustices gives us kind of a unique platform from which we can, also illuminate some of the struggles of our sisters and brothers, who have also suffered similar injustices in the United States. When October 7th happened, and the war in the Mideast between Israel and the Palestinian people flared up again, the committee members realized that this was something that our community had to come to grips with. So our sub theme this year, Finding Our Way Home you know, has to do with the fact that we need to try to understand a little bit more I feel about the plight of the Palestinian people who, in fact, had their homes essentially taken from them. There is a parallel there, obviously, with the Japanese American experience here, where many people lost their homes or had their properties expropriated taken over by the government or by other people. We feel that we need to have a better understanding, basically, and we need to also stand in solidarity with the Palestinian people, because, and we also need to educate our, audience, which are mainly Japanese Americans, as to the, as to the parallels, between the plight of the Palestinian people that are, that they are undergoing right now, and plight of our people who, you know, who were definitely very much discriminated against and, had their human rights trampled on during the war. So this is another Aspect of DOR I believe that we need to also emphasize. DOR is many things, but I think what it really is, it really is a commemorative and educational event, certainly, but also, it does have an advocacy function as well. The theme kind of embraces that idea of home. We all want to go home and that's what certainly the people in the concentration camps felt during World War II and I'm sure that's what the Palestinian people are feeling as well. Miko Lee: [00:13:23] And how will this support and understanding of what's going on in Palestine show up at the event this year? Jeff Matsuoka: [00:13:32] We're very fortunate to have as our keynote speaker, Reverend Michael Yoshi. He's a retired minister of the Buena Vista United Methodist Church. Michael, for many years he's had a ministry with a village in the West Bank Wadi Fukin, and actually in past DORs, he has reported about his experiences there, and he's also invited members of the villagers of Wadi Fukin to come and visit the United States. He, I believe, is uniquely positioned to speak about these parallels that I'm talking about between the JAA incarceration and what's going on in Palestine, in Gaza and the West Bank today. And also he's uniquely, I think, respected in our community, and he has, he's worked very diligently, he's very highly respected in our JAA community, and I believe that he will be a really great speaker to help us educate to fulfill our educational function of, trying to try to tell us what's going on really there in Palestine. We have, I think, in the United States, a very kind of blinkered view of what's going on, and I think, I believe we need to rectify that view. And I believe, as I say, Reverend Yoshi, who has had, he's been there, he has talked to people there. I believe he is really the best speaker that we could have imagined for our theme this year. So we're really happy to have Reverend Michael Yoshi to be our keynote speaker. Miko Lee: [00:14:53] That sounds great. One of the things I've been really Noticing is how young folks in our community are really vocal about their support for the Palestinians. I'm wondering if you've noticed a difference In the young people that are part of the movement and how they organize and how they utilize their activism versus folks of our generations. Jeff Matsuoka: [00:15:15] Yeah, so of course it's very interesting, of course, the younger generation, they certainly have a proficiency with technology, in particular, social media. And that's something that I think our generation lacks, or we're not as proficient at, using those tools, they're actually able to amplify their message in a way that our generation really at least don't think we really can do. Their reach is much more widespread, I believe, as a result. What really impresses me about the young people, though, is, how as you mentioned, how fervent their advocacy is. Thing is, they're, some of them are really much more ardent, in my opinion, on this cause than people of my generation have shown. So I believe we can learn something from them and I'm really happy that we have some young people on our committee who are really helping us try to try as oldsters to try to understand how best we can bring out this message to the American community and to our community for that matter. Miko Lee: [00:16:11] That's great. And we'll hear more about that later in the episode with KC Mukai, who actually developed a youth organizing committee that's part of the work of JACL and DOR, I believe. So I'm excited to hear more about that. Can you tell us about this Year's Clifford I. Uyeda Peace and Humanitarian Awardee? Jeff Matsuoka: [00:16:32] Yes, our awardee this year is Dr. Rabab Abdulhadi, and, she is actually a professor at San Francisco State University, and, she has for many years actually been very supportive of our JA Advocacy. She's been a candle lighter at our, at our, at previous, of Remembrance events. She is the Director of Arab and Muslim Ethnicities and Diaspora Studies at San Francisco State And she has won many awards. One thing that we really want to emphasize for this year's award is the fact that, we are talking about, the situation in Palestine. The committee felt that it was appropriate to have Dr. Albdulhadi be the awardee given all the work that she's been doing basically to promote Palestinian understanding, both in the educational aspects as well as in advocacy as well. So we feel that she's very well deserving of the Clifford I. Uyeda. Peace and Humanitarian award. And we're very happy that I understand that she will be there in person to accept the award. So we're very, we're looking forward to seeing her at our event. Miko Lee: [00:17:37] Can you give us a little background about the award and what it represents? Jeff Matsuoka: [00:17:44] Yes, the Clifford I. Uyeda award is named after Dr. Clifford I. Uyeda, actually. He was a San Francisco pediatrician, he was also an activist, a lifelong really activist in the Japanese American community. He was active in the JACL. He was very instrumental in starting the, one of the, one of the founders of the redress movement when he was president, actually, the national JACL. Also Dr. Clifford was a man who, you know really was a person of tremendous, I think, courage in the sense that he was man of principle. He took positions, which I think, could have alienated him from even other Japanese or Japanese Americans. For instance, he was very much an advocate for recognizing the Japanese government's involvement or complicity in the rape of Nanking, for instance. And he was very, yes, he was definitely very courageous in taking positions that other people in our community really felt uncomfortable actually taking positions on. When he passed away in 2004, the Day of Remembrance Committee decided to create the Clifford I. Uyeda Award to honor his memory as well as to commemorate or to honor individuals who are activists in the same vein as Dr. Uyeda was. Courageous path breakers basically in our community and also outside of community for social justice and inclusion and yeah, we're very happy that Dr. Albdulhadi is this year's Clifford I. Uyeda award winner. Miko Lee: [00:19:12] I hear what you're saying about how important it is for our community, for Japanese Americans to understand this history and to recognize it and connect it with things that are happening today. Why is it important for non-Japanese Americans to understand about the Day of Remembrance? Jeff Matsuoka: [00:19:29] First of all, I'm sorry to say this, most non-Japanese don't even know about EO966 or the internment of Japanese Americans. As time goes on the American public sort of forgets things, and this is one of those things that really can't be forgotten because obviously what happens when you forget history is you repeat history, and that's what's happening. I think, for the non Japanese community, the lessons that were learned from the incarceration of Japanese Americans, in the sense that, it was an unjust incarceration that civil rights were, in fact, trampled on, and that, in fact, the government apologized for those injustices and they actually compensated, our community. These are things that I think the American public needs to know because if they forget, and unfortunately I believe they are forgetting, then those same injustices will be perpetrated again among other, to other communities and the cycle will continue. So this is a very valuable lesson and particularly now given the political atmosphere here in this country. This is a very important lesson that needs to be taught and understood as to what the implications of government actions like this have basically on people, if our, of our certainly has affected our community but we can look at other examples of other communities that have been similarly impacted. And I believe those lessons have been lost or forgotten in those cases. The Day of Remembrance is really more important than it ever has been. Miko Lee: [00:20:56] Thank you so much Jeff Matsuoka for joining us. We will put a link in our website to the Day of Remembrance events that are happening all over the country. But Jeff, can you give us more details about the Bay Area Day of Remembrance that's happening February 17th from 2 to 4? Where is it and what will people experience when they go to it? Jeff Matsuoka: [00:21:14] Yes, thanks, Miko. Yes, the San Francisco Bay Area Day of Remembrance will take place as you mentioned on Saturday, February 17th from 2 to 4PM. It's going to be at the AMC Kabuki 8 theaters. That's 1881 Post Street in San Francisco's Japantown. And we'll have, of course, the keynote speaker, Reverend Yoshi, but, another important part, a very commemorative part of our, Day of Remembrance is the candle lighting ceremony, where we actually honor the internees of the ten War Relocation Authority camps, as well as the DOJ Department of Justice camp, with a candle lighting ceremony, and that's always the highlight of the event. A very you know, commemorative and contemplative and very actually emotional, event where we commemorate the all the internees who were unjustly incarcerated and, following the event we're actually going to have a procession through Japantown, going from the theater to a reception, which should be held at the Japanese Cultural and Community Center of Northern California and that's on Center street. So we hope you can join us. It should be should be a really, meaningful and important event Miko Lee: [00:22:18] And that candlelight procession is quite beautiful. It is wheelchair accessible so people can leave the Kabuki theater and basically walk around the corner. And it's a lovely commemoration and recognition of a horrible event that happened in these United States. But we're working to remember them so that we can make sure that they don't happen again. Thank you so much, Jeff, for joining us on Apex Express. Jeff Matsuoka: [00:22:42] Thank you very much for having me. Jalena Keane-Lee: [00:22:46] Next up listen to Nobuko Miyamoto's “Gaman.” MUSIC Jalena Keane-Lee: [00:29:07] That was “Gaman” from Nobuko Miyamoto's Smithsonian Folkways album, 120,000 Stories. Nobuko was one of the many women's stories that haven't been highlighted until now. Miko Lee: [00:29:19] You are listening to 94.1 KPFA and 89.3 KPFB in Berkeley, 88.1 KFCF in Fresno, 97.5 K248BR in Santa Cruz, 94.3 K232FZ in Monterey, and online worldwide at kpfa.org. Jalena Keane-Lee: [00:29:48] All right. Welcome KC Mukai to Apex Express. I think this is the first time that we've had the reigning Cherry Blossom Queen on our show, so it's so great to have you here. Thank you so much for joining us. KC Mukai: [00:30:02] Oh my gosh, yes, thank you so much for having me. It's an honor. Jalena Keane-Lee: [00:30:07] So can you tell us a little bit about being the Cherry Blossom Queen, like what did it feel like to win that honor, and how did you find out about the pageant? KC Mukai: [00:30:16] Well, I've always been involved in the Japanese American community growing up, going to Buddhist temples and participating in Girl Scouts. But when I came to the Bay for college, I was really searching for community. So I got involved with an internship program called Nikkei Community Internship in Japantown, and then that put me in contact with the Northern California Cherry Blossom Festival. And from there, I decided to apply for the Queen Program, because it really valued female leadership, especially within the community. And it's been an amazing, amazing year so far, and I'm actually almost rounding out the end of it for the next court to come in in April. But, yeah, it's truly been such an amazing and beautiful journey with the court. Jalena Keane-Lee: [00:31:02] That's so wonderful. What are some of the highlights of your year with the court so far? KC Mukai: [00:31:09] Yeah, I would definitely say some of the highlights have been me participating in, you know, events that I grew up with, such as Obon getting to go to San Jose Obon and also Concord. Really being a part of the community there. I would also say a highlight has been just going to different community organization fundraisers the JCCCNC and Japantown as well as Kamochi and other organizations that, you know, are really critical for keeping Japantown thriving. It's been an honor to meet leaders from there and be able to see, you know, the blood, sweat and tears that really goes behind producing and helping the community thrive. And then I think, of course, getting to meet just such wonderful, wonderful and amazing women in this community not only from my current core, but also Hawaii and Nisei Week have similar festivals and programs. And so getting to meet and bond with them and just really seeing that, you know, women are the cultural keepers of our community the Japanese American community and it's really important to keep those ties close and really, really help them to grow. Jalena Keane-Lee: [00:32:26] Oh, I love that. What are some of the things that sparked your interest in Japanese American community organizing and culture bearing? KC Mukai: [00:32:39] Some of the things that inspired me, particularly in my organizing sense is definitely having, being part of the Japanese American community and I have grandparents and great grandparents and family that were among the 125,000 people of Japanese descent that were incarcerated during World War II because they were deemed a national security threat. And so because of that tie to incarceration and injustice and the fact that, you know, my great grandparents lost their livelihood and my grandparents lost their youth and kind of that community sense lost a grasp of their identity and security I ground my organizing work in kind of a lot of making sure that that injustice doesn't happen to other communities today or at least advocating for that. And I think being a cultural keeper it's growing up and being part of temples and community spaces. I got a chance to see how the women of my community and like the Obachans or the grandmas would come out and dedicate so much of their lives to keeping our temples and organizations afloat in terms of, you know, coming out early and bringing food staying till late hours cleaning up, leading the organizations on the board and stepping up for leadership positions. And it's because of those role models and that ancestral history that I continue to feel today, like, it's important to get involved in my community and also speak up for injustice. Jalena Keane-Lee: [00:34:18] Thank you so much for sharing that. Tonight's show is focused on the Day of Remembrance. Can you share a little bit about how the Day of Remembrance has been recognized in your family? KC Mukai: [00:34:30] Yeah, so in my family I'm half Japanese and half Chinese, and my Japanese side, my family has always. recognized Day of Remembrance as an important holiday within our community, specifically because of its importance to recognizing incarceration and what happened to Japanese Americans during World War II. I grew up in the Central Valley in Fresno area and the surrounding towns and being able to recognize the Day of Remembrance and kind of tie it back to my own, personal tie with this, and then also connecting it to what is happening in the world today, that's always been kind of an important keynote of, of the time. So my family, in particular, my Japanese side was incarcerated at Poston and Gila River and then they resettled back in the bay, but then my pod moved out to central California to live on a cherry farm. We always understood that despite this being kind of a historic event, the themes of injustice and exclusion, and human rights are still very much applicable to what we see happening in the world today. Jalena Keane-Lee: [00:35:55] Can you talk with us about the theme of this year's Bay Area event for Day of Remembrance, Carrying the Light for Justice – Finding Our Way Home? KC Mukai: [00:36:04] Yeah, so the theme for this year's Day of Remembrance has to do with Palestine and what we see happening in the Middle East. We chose Palestine to be your theme because we think that it's an important moment to not only share and educate what is happening with our community, but also to bring our community in and raise consciousness. We chose this topic because of course it's very urgent and very timely as, as we speak, there is still not a ceasefire in Palestine and we wanted to do all we could to really highlight the issue and center the Palestinian community and really be an ally. Japanese Americans, we know from our own history, the importance of protecting human rights and civil rights and civil liberties, since these were, of course, stripped away from us during America's World War II incarceration camps. And so, seeing then the destruction of, you know, Palestinian communities really speaks to us as Japanese Americans because we also faced the destruction of our own communities, you know, in our homes and our businesses and our farms are taken away. And also we were denied our education, our health care, our cultural rights and of course, other infringements of civil rights and basic human rights. We very much see this, and recognize the same things happening in Palestine. However, with that being said, I think our DOR committee also recognizes that not all of our community is in the same place in terms of education and understanding of this work and we want to be cognizant of that. So part of our programming is we're inviting Reverend Michael Yoshi, who's a very respected pastor within the United Methodist Church who has been doing work alongside an allyship with Palestine for a while. And we're inviting him as a respected member of our community to come and speak and share a bit about why he sees the Japanese American experience aligning with the Palestinian experience. On top of having Reverend Michael Yoshi, we're also inviting a few of our Nikkei organizations in the community to come and table and just be there to help educate. There's a growing collective called Nikkei for Palestine that has recently formed that has been trying to push our community to be more active and organized. So Nikkei for Palestine, alongside Tsuru for Solidarity is hoping to show up and also just help bring our community into the work. Jalena Keane-Lee: [00:38:46] That's so great. Thank you so much for doing that. And I feel like it really brings the phrase of never again into the present and also emphasizing that never again doesn't just mean for our own community, but it means for anyone and everyone in the world. So thank you so much for making those intersectional connections. And I know you mentioned Nikkei for Palestine and Tsuru for Solidarity. And so I was just curious if you could talk a little bit about the different kind of community organizing groups that you're a part of. KC Mukai: [00:39:21] Yeah, sure I'd love to share. So I think importantly is probably Nikkei for Palestine collective that I have been doing work in and we are a growing collective that formed out of a kind of initial meeting held by Nikkei resistors in the Bay Area that sought to kind of gather others who were really seeing the destruction and loss of life happening in Palestine and really wanting to organize around that.And so Nikkei for Palestine has been doing several things, including trying to push the JACL or the Japanese American Citizens League to speak up. We've also been holding weekly power hours for our Nikkei community to call on our Japanese American representatives to speak up. We've also been doing educational work, and putting together packets and toolkits and so that's Nikkei for Palestine. Other than Nikkei for Palestine, I'm of course involved as the Queen of the Northern California Cherry Blossom Festival and on top of that, I also do work with Tsuru for Solidarity as their current fundraiser chair. And alongside doing my fundraising role in Tsuru, I'm also on the Police, Prisons, and Detention Working Group, and currently in Tsuru for Solidarity is actually planning for a big action in Tacoma, Washington. We're organizing, to shut down the Northwest Detention Center, which, is a detention center, holding individuals that have been facing very bleak, human rights violations, in terms of not getting adequate food, having, water pipes burst in the detention center and they've actually been going on hunger strike, the individuals within this detention center have been trying to strike in their own way, and so we're hoping to do a big protest upcoming on our Day of Remembrance, actually, for February 16th. And then past that, we're also doing a big action at the end of April, in the last weekend of April. Yeah, those are some of the groups that I organize with today. Jalena Keane-Lee: [00:41:32] That's great. Thank you so much for sharing. And when it comes to, you know, growing up and becoming a woman in the world today and just everything that we're faced with when it comes to genocide and mass incarceration, both in the present and in the past, I'm curious, what are some of the things that that bring you hope and that remind you that You know, there is so much to fight for and to work for. KC Mukai: [00:42:03] I think some things that give me hope are intergenerational conversations. I think oftentimes within organizing work and can get. We tend to pigeonhole ourselves within like this one moment without realizing that we're part of a larger landscape and in a larger history of people that have been doing this work for a long time. So it makes me very hopeful and grateful to see elders that have been in this work for a long time getting involved and sharing their knowledge as well as younger folk and children also sharing and being part of the movement today. Recently I went to a ceasefire banner drop at the Buddhist Church of Oakland and there they had some of their Dharma school students actually speak up and share why ceasefire is important to them and they were leading the chants. And, as you know, going out to protest today, we often see young children out there right there with us. And I think that is so inspiring that despite all of the violence and that we see in the world today, that we're still able to have these moments of true community and true passing down of knowledge and being able to see that there is a future. I think something else that also gives me hope is cultivating spaces like some of the community groups I've been a part of, I think, especially like Tsuru and Nikkei for Palestine. Being able to have honest conversations with each other — I think it can be hard to organize especially when you're organizing against something that seems so insurmountable and then conflict often comes to that, but it's been hopeful to see the ways in which my community is able to push past, I guess, the ties of what bounds us to punitive and carceral measures in terms of like, if I don't agree with you, I'm going to shun you. And it's been encouraging to see spaces where this is rethought and how can we creatively work in and organize together in a space without and recognize that we may have differences, but that we're all in this work together and push forward from that. And so I think those have definitely kept me going in these moments. Jalena Keane-Lee: [00:44:34] And yes, we love intergenerational connections and organizing and activism, and I was wondering if you see any differences in organizing amongst our generation and our parents and our grandparents generations. KC Mukai: [00:44:48] Wow, that's a great question. Yeah, I would say something, like, I would definitely say something that I've noticed is different is that kind of abolitionist look at relationships in terms of, I feel like, in my parents and grandparents generation, there's often, and especially within the community, there's often this need to, like, disagreement is never completely dealt with, or it's definitely like more shamed upon or kind of the ways that we treat each other are, you know, not as like creative as we want it to be. And so what I see in this future generation is this. It's kind of, you know, hope to be more intentional with each other, especially under an understanding, like the work needs to be done and how can we get past this small moment of conflict and be able to see the larger picture. I would also say like in terms of organizing itself I think it's been cool to see how, I guess social media plays a role in our organizing spaces. Especially I was just on a call with an elder last night and she was sharing about her work getting involved in the Vietnam War and how from their perspective, they weren't able to get like the real time information about the atrocities happening during war like we are during this time, and being able to see, you know, the amount of destruction happening in Palestine. So I think that, you know, the social media part of it and how fast media can move is playing to our benefit, but also, you know, also our demise in some way. And so, yeah, I think those two things are definitely some differences I see in our generations. Jalena Keane-Lee: [00:46:45] Thank you. If there's someone out there listening who's not sure how to get involved in community and community organizing, and maybe not sure that their voice matters or could make any sort of impact, what would you say to them? KC Mukai: [00:47:04] Yeah, if there's someone, I think if there's someone out there listening that, you know, is maybe struggling with, seeing how their voice and their position in this matters, I would say to them that it's important to think about yourself, not just as an individual, but as part of a whole. I lean on the practice of interdependence, which is a teaching in Buddhism, which teaches us that we are all connected to each other and what I say and what I do has an impact upon others around me. And I think it's important to understand that movements get started because of a person and another person and another person joining and thinking about the, I guess, vastness of organizing work. It's important to really, while as complicated as it is, it's important to sometimes simplify it for yourselves and just say that, hey, like, I can start my own movement in my own way. I recently heard or was reminded of the way that, redress or redress for the Japanese American community kind of got steam within our community and eventually got passed in Congress. And it started with, you know, one person just keeping standing up at these JACL meetings. And for 10 years, he came to JACL National Convention and he kept arguing that we as Japanese Americans need to bring redress into Congress and because of his work, it eventually passed as a national resolution in JACL and that's when JACL got involved and really helped to push it with Congress, and that's how we got redress and that was such a long timeline and I think it's important to remember stories like that and stories of how movements are started to encourage us. Jalena Keane-Lee: [00:49:15] Absolutely. And speaking of JACL, could you talk with us about your development of a district youth board for JACL? KC Mukai: [00:49:26] Yeah, so I started the district youth board of the NCWNP district youth board, two years ago because I became the NCWNP, which is the Northern California, Western Nevada Pacific District, youth rep.And because of that position, my governor asked if I could, you know, really get a hold on this, this youth leadership. And so with her guidance, and my, I guess, ambition and drive, I brought together 6 of us, to form the 1st District Youth Board in the JACL, and we were able to build out programming and youth events and intergenerational events and get a grant to help send people to national convention as well as other projects all within our first year. And so it was very, very, very great especially for building the leadership pipeline within JACL we were able to help some of our youth members get on to leadership positions within our district council and also as chapter presidents and because of that, it helps to diversify, I guess, the outlook of of JACL in terms of what JACL is passionate about what it's able to speak on. And so I'm very, very proud of that district youth board. But since then, I have stepped off as one of the founders and so my co-founders Bruce Arao and Halle Sousa have been really, really doing such a great job with district youth board. And taking it to places I never thought I would go. So I think it's all been great getting to watch them do that. Jalena Keane-Lee: [00:51:27] That's wonderful. Thank you. Is there anything else that you'd like to add about the Day of Remembrance or about anything else that you have going on? KC Mukai: [00:51:38] Yeah. So I'd like to add, I'm also involved in a growing organization that we just founded called JAYA, which is the Japanese American Youth Alliance. And our goal is to connect all of the Nikkei youth organizations within the Bay and NorCal and Northern California together to help do like youth programming and also kind of serve as a bridge between collegiate organizations and then young adult organizations. And so because of that work with JAYA, we're actually holding our own Day of Remembrance event, and it's in conjunction with the Bay Area DOR. But it will be happening right before Bay Area DOR's, which will be in the morning around 11 AM, and we're holding it at the JCYC in San Francisco, Japantown, this event will, be more of an opportunity for youth to come together to talk about why Day of Remembrance is important. We'll also be talking about Palestine and solidarity with Palestine and so if there's any youth listening who are interested in coming, we definitely would like to see you there. And then afterwards, after our youth one, we'll be joining the Bay Area DOR one at Kabuki Theater. Jalena Keane-Lee: [00:52:26] That's great. Thank you so much for sharing. And we will link to more information on that in our show notes too. KC Mukai: [00:53:02] Okay. Wonderful. Jalena Keane-Lee: [00:53:06] Is there anything else that you'd like to add or share? KC Mukai: [00:53:08] Just thank you so much for having me. And this was such a great opportunity to share a little bit about my work, but also the larger work of the Japan town and Japanese American community. So thank you so much. Jalena Keane-Lee: [00:53:19] Thank you so much. It was so lovely getting to talk with you and it's really inspiring all the different work that you're doing and, uh, Nikkei for Palestine sounds really awesome too. KC Mukai: [00:53:29] Thank you, thank you. Miko Lee: [00:53:31] There are events happening this weekend for Day of Remembrance, all over the country. So for the community calendar, I'm going to give you a little bit of an update. To find out more about what's happening for Day of Remembrance in your community check out the Japanese American Citizen League's website to look at the regional events at JACL.org. In the Bay Area where many of us are located. This Friday night from 6 to 9:00 PM there's going to be a day of remembrance student celebration at UC Berkeley's Stephen's Lounge. And then the next day on February 17th in the Bay Area will be the Bay Area Day of Remembrance that we talked to both of our guests tonight about. It's called Carrying the Light for Justice – Finding Our Way Home to commemorate the Executive Order 9066. It will be at AMC Kabuki 8 theater on 1881 Post St, and then a beautiful candlelight procession through the streets of Japantown to a reception at the Japanese Cultural [and Community Center] on 1840 Sutter. Everyone is welcome and it's wheelchair accessible. Also February 17th from 2 to 4, if you are in Los Angeles, the Day of Remembrance is called Rooted in Resistance: Fighting for Justice during World War II, reinforces the importance of standing up for justice in times of great moral crisis. From the draft resisters and the No-No Boys to those who protested through quiet hunger strikes or chanting crowds, resistance has taken many forms since World War II and we will hear truth and testimony from those who remember and honor these stories. Some of the speakers include Diana Tsuchida, Kyoko Oda, Tak Hoshizaki, and Soji Kashiwagi. On Monday, February 19th from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM is the Day of Remembrance in San Jose. And then the following weekend, Saturday and Sunday, February 24 and 25, there will be films all about the Day of Remembrance at the Kabuki and San Francisco. And then in San Jose at the Betsuin Buddhist church. Again, to find out more what's happening in your community check out JACL.org. And remember so that we don't repeat the harms of the past. Thank you very much. Jalena Keane-Lee: [00:55:54] Next up we hear “Summer of '42” by Kishi Bashi from the album Omoiyari. Even though Kishi and his family immigrated to the US post-World War II, he created this album to address the current political climate. He felt that the talk of walls and bans on immigrants recalls the same sort of fears that sparked the internment camps after Pearl Harbor in 1941. Jalena Keane-Lee: [00:56:18] That was “Summer of '42” by Kishi Bashi. Miko Lee: [00:59:14] Please check out our website, kpfa.org to find out more about the Day of Remembrance and the guests that we spoke to. We thank all of you listeners out there. Keep resisting, keep organizing, keep creating and sharing your visions with the world because your voices are important.

Clemente Cámara, leyenda como pocas en la publicidad mexicana, llega al nuevo Estudio de Los Dioses ¡y nos deja sin palabras! El nombre de Clemente está asociado a la publicidad en México. Ser publicista, nos dice,es llegar a la mente y al corazón de las personas. Hacer que una idea quede grabada en la parte emocional, realmente cambia las cosas. Empezamos con mujeres extraordinarias. La historia de Chaneca Maldonado, publicista extraordinaria, creadora del Chaca-Chaca de Ariel y Acapulco en la Azotea. La primer mujer alcalde en una comunidad de Oaxaca. Mucha tecnología, poca comunicación. ¿Puede la tecnología, a través de la comunicación, mejorar la situación de violencia en México? Creemos que sí. Cuidado: la gente sólo recuerda el 7% de la comunicación que recibe. Y cada vez usamos menos palabras. ¿cómo cambia esto la sociedad? La historia de Brandy Don Pedro -el brandy que tiene el don. Cuando la publicidad se acercaba a la difusión de la cultura. ¿No nos cree? Vea el comercial de Don Pedro que hablaba nada -más y nada menos- que de Nicolás Copérnico. Grandes aventuras de la filmación en 35mm. El mítico spot estilo Tiburón para Ford Mustang. ¡67 puntos de recordación! La dupla con Pedro Torres. ¿Cómo filmar un spot para Grand Marquis en la cima del volcán Chichonal? Ahora General Motors -antes “la Chevrolet”.

La verdadera historia de New Coke, el relanzamiento de Coca-Cola en los ochenta. ¿El mayor error de la historia del marketing? Entérese de la verdad. Barry Day, el original Mad Men. La diferencia entre una simple campaña… y una estrategia de marketing. Cuando la creatividad deja de estar alineada a la estrategia, deja de funcionar. Desengáñense, creativos: la buena creatividad es la que vende. Llegamos a Nissan. Clemente Cámara, ya como agencia independiente, lo invitan a un concurso entre las 20 agencias más grandes de México. ¿Cómo logró ganar? Con honestidad.

And tonight on apex express I speak with artists Celi Tamayo-Lee and Na Omi Judy Shintani and lawyer Don Tamaki join us aboard apex express Welcome to Apex Express, Celi Tamayo-Lee . [00:01:19] Celi Tamayo-Lee: Thank you for having me, Miko. [00:01:21] Miko Lee: We're so happy to have you as an artist, as a community organizer. So my first question for you is, who are your people and what legacy do you carry with you? [00:01:32] Celi Tamayo-Lee: My people are creatives. people who like to eat a lot. My lineage comes from ELOs Norte in the Philippines, in the province of La Wag and also from Toisan in village, Sega, which is, in the Guandong province in China. My people love to dance. My people are nature lovers, ocean lovers, and those who wanna figure out what it fights to get to liberation. I carry with me legacies. Of deep hope and deep faith and legacies of adventuring. I think a lot about both my grandmothers, my Popo June and my Lola Anisha, who were just both very. Revolutionary in my mind, for their times. My grandmother from the Philippines coming here, from her small village, having I think just a high school degree and making a life for herself and her family in San Francisco. My other grandmother, June, who was a housewife in Palo Alto, who I think otherwise would have become a doctor, had higher education been m ore accessible for, women in her time. I think both of them were just really loving women , who hosted a lot of open space for their communities through their food, through gatherings and parties and also being a safe place for many of our relatives in the United. [00:03:09] Miko Lee: Thank you for that. I often think about my Popo who had all this power and imagination and what it would be like if she was living today. Do you feel like you carry an additional, , responsibility to fulfill some of their dreams since they could not during their time. [00:03:28] Celi Tamayo-Lee: Yeah. I think about that a lot. I think in the moments where I'm like, wow, I have just sat at a table all day on my computer. Is this what my ancestors dreamt for me? But I think especially as I have been exploring more of my gender identity. I think I identify as a non-binary person and I think that might be something that they couldn't quite, imagine in, in the language and the terms that they knew. But I think that like real freedom to express one's within their body and how they express themselves outwardly is definitely something I think they dreamt for me and. I also feel a responsibility to be a part of movement work and be a part of continuing to build community because that is something that I've benefited so much from them. [00:04:22] Miko Lee: Talk a little bit more about your community organizing and how you combine that with your artistry and your imagination. [00:04:28] Celi Tamayo-Lee: It's definitely been a journey for myself to identify as an artist and I think, mostly cuz there's so many messages about the ways in which art will never be a career path because of how dicey it is in terms of making money, in many ways, ironically, shout out my parents, who were both very creative people and also, people who have fought for social justice for most of their lives. my dad is a civil rights attorney and was a community organizer as a young person, but also, A musician and has always played in bands as a fun side gig. when he was my age, he was in a band called Stand that would perform all over the Bay Area. And my mom herself is also a cook and just a very creative person made all my Halloween costumes growing up and as an avid gardener. Having parents like that gave me just permission to continue to grow myself in a creative way. And I do think throughout so much of history movements have really succeeded because of their artistic aspects. Even within our Asian American history, there are so many important graphic designers and artists who made protest posters. Made movement graphics that really called into being like the spirit , of what people were fighting for. , I think about all of the songs that were sung throughout the Civil Rights movement and, I think culture just has a really powerful way of opening people's minds up to things that may feel out. reach when they're thinking in a more rational way. I just think that any movement that we need, is gonna depend on the way in which culture has been influenced through art. [00:06:25] Miko Lee: And speaking of that, you've been in the studio at Soma all day today, setting up a new exhibit called Muni Raised Me. Can you tell us about your latest project? [00:06:35] Celi Tamayo-Lee: This project called Muni Raised Me is a exhibit that will be in Soma Arts for six weeks, and it is a part of their curatorial residency programs. So myself and two of my really good friends, Sasha Vu and Mei Mei Lee, we saw the flyer on Instagram that they were calling for proposals and, , applied with this idea of a show called Muni Raised Me. really what It is, is, a love letter, a gathering, a dance party of so many of our friends, our talented friends who are. Visual artists, painters, collage artists, fashion designers, photographers it's really a space that we actually wanted to create for a long time, but never really found the platform to do it. And so much of it is trying to. ,I think juxtapose like the beauty and the roots that we come from having grown up in San Francisco while also naming just the struggle it has been to persist and live here. ,most of us artists were born in the early nineties and have just come of age in this tech era within San Francisco. 2011 was when Mayor Ed Lee invited tech companies like Twitter and Google and LinkedIn in with these major tax breaks. From 2009 to 2013, every time that I visited home, There were just more and more beloved businesses that had been replaced by condos and replaced by fancy coffee shops selling $6 lattes. For myself and for many of my friends it's been a painful and lonely experience to try and maintain a life here and to, make rent, to feel creative, to still work in public service. So many of the artists in our show are organizers themselves, or are teachers and educators in public schools or in afterschool programs. And so to try and live all those different multiple dreams and identities is really a struggle in San Francisco. [00:08:53] Miko Lee: So when somebody walks into Soma Arts, what will they see with Muni raised me. [00:08:58] Celi Tamayo-Lee: Ooh. I will say one of the first things they will see is a Muni bus that we were actually gifted from SFMTA. It just so happened that they were retiring a number of their buses and we got connected to the right person. , shout out Nicole Christian who knew somebody and. We have transformed that bus into an altar. You can walk through the bus, and throughout the bus there will be altars, but there will be definitely a focal point at the very back of the bus for people to view, but also for people to interact with. I think that so much of living in the city and having grown up in the city is an experience of grief and we really wanted to make space in the show for people to bring in ancestors and bring in family members who have been lost, , or, even family members who have been pushed out of the Bay Area. we also wanna commemorate lives lost to police violence. yeah, We hope that altar can be, a realm in which the spirit is felt beyond just , the material setting of a gallery. There's also gonna be a lot of amazing collage work from Erin Kimora. We have a beautiful installation from Arena Alejo, along with, Alyssa Avilas, who is a painter and multidisciplinary artist. People will just see a lot of kind of iconography from the nineties. We have a couple of painted Muni passes and a lot of, yeah, just different gestures and shout outs to this public transportation system that I know for myself, I spent hours and hours of my life on. It was a little bit of a pocket of freedom, like with my parents not necessarily knowing where I was. It wasn't home, it wasn't school. It was a place where I got to just enjoy and see my city. [00:11:02] Miko Lee: And What would you like folks to feel after they leave the show? [00:11:06] Celi Tamayo-Lee: I hope that they leave feeling reminded that San Francisco is them and that any kind of beauty or spark or funkiness or weirdness that they feel themselves missing from San Francisco actually can come back through their own creativity, through their own hello to a neighbor through their own small act of kindness. You know, I think there are deeper relationships also made through this show. I hope that there's a feeling of oh, my people are still here. I am connected to a sense of justice and community that maybe doesn't always feel present in the everyday, but is actually there. I hope that it. Reignites some sense of connectedness to other people who call this place home. [00:11:59] Miko Lee: I wonder if you could just speak a little bit about how art helps us remember the past so that we can learn and move forward in the future. [00:12:08] Celi Tamayo-Lee: Yeah, I think art is really critical to remembering our history. It's definitely one thing to read something in a book and another thing to experience it through imagery and sound and color. it was important to us in this exhibit to in our alter space, include really important historical figures of San Francisco. So we're including people like Victoria Manalo Draves who was a Filipina American olympic swimmer, she was one of the first women swimmers to win in her divisions of diving. We also have people like Mary Ellen Pleasant, who was an African-American woman, one of the first African-American millionaires in the country, who is also dubbed as the Harriet Tubman of the West. She helped hundreds of African-American people, basically find and make lives here in San Francisco. And, She challenged the government when they told her that she couldn't ride actually on a certain part of the public transportation, and it went to the California Supreme Court and she won and that is what stopped discrimination on the trolley routes in San Francisco. Art reaches people who would not normally seek out that history. I think it just gives people a much deeper sense of their own legacies or legacies that they may not even know that they're connected to. [00:13:51] Miko Lee: Celi Tamayo-Lee, thank you so much for joining us on Apex Express. [00:13:56] Celi Tamayo-Lee: Thank you for having me. Miko. For anyone who's looking for more information, you can follow us on Instagram@MuniRaisedMe and also find us online@somaarts.com/Muniraisedme. [00:14:10] Miko Lee: That was Sealy to Mio Lee talking about muni raised me. Now take a listen to pistol jazz by Hi no Tori. A taiko solo. [00:17:41] Miko Lee: Welcome back. You are tuned into apex express, a 94.1 KPFA and 89.3 KPF. Be in Berkeley and online@kpfa.org. That was a Taiko solo. Hi no Tori by pistol jazz. Welcome artist and narrator of culture, NaOmi Judy Shintani to Apex Express. [00:18:03] NaOmi Judy Shintani: Thank you for having me. I'm excited to talk with you. [00:18:06] Miko Lee: We're excited to talk with you too, and I wanna kick it off by first asking you, who are your people and what legacy do you carry with you? [00:18:16] NaOmi Judy Shintani: Well, I do quite a bit of my artwork about, the Japanese American history and so those are some of my people, I would say. But I also want my work to be visible to all kinds of people. So I'd say everyone's my people. The legacy I carry, part of that has to do with the incarceration, that is part of the history of my family. That is something that I carry with me. I think that there is intergenerational trauma. There's lessons you learn in legacy from your family and your culture. [00:18:54] Miko Lee: So we are coming along to the Day of Remembrance, which is a day that recognizes the Japanese-American incarceration. Can you tell about your family's personal connection with the incarceration. [00:19:07] NaOmi Judy Shintani: My father's family was up in Washington State in the Puget Sound area, and they lived on a houseboat and were oyster farmers. When Pearl Harbor was bombed, they immediately came and got my grandfather, who was a leader in the community. They were a concerned or worried that he might be a spy or might have information. And so He was taken away and my grandmother and my father's and his sibling didn't really know what had happened to him. A few days later they came for my grandmother and my father and his siblings. They eventually ended up at Tule Lake incarceration camp. Then my grandfather was allowed to be with the family there. On my mother's side, she was actually in Hawaii and the family was not incarcerated per se, though there's a lot of limitations and curfews that they had to live with. Her father was also a leader in the community and he was taken away for a year. And I think At that time my mother didn't really, probably up until the time of her death did not believe that they were incarcerated in Hawaii. But of course, we've learned later that there were incarceration camps in Hawaii and that my grandfather actually was incarcerated. [00:20:36] Miko Lee: Yeah, so many of these stories are hidden. Finally the one incarceration camp in Oahu is just getting turned into a, a national park soon. So More people will know about that history. That's one of the many hidden histories about the internment camps in Hawaii. [00:20:52] NaOmi Judy Shintani: Exactly. One of my goals is to explore the incarceration history in Hawaii. I've mostly been focused on my father's family cuz there's been more information. So I'm very interested in learning more about the legacy of trauma in Hawaii. [00:21:10] Miko Lee: You're an amazing artist, have created so many important pieces, and can you talk more about how you combine your sense of family history, your activism with your artistry? [00:21:22] NaOmi Judy Shintani: I think originally I started wanting to learn more about what happened to my family and also to come to grips with it for my own self. That's when I really started exploring trying to learn more, trying to Get my father to talk more about his experience and that is what really spurred me to start making art. At one point when we went to the Tule Lake pilgrimage together, he was asked how often do you think about the incarceration? It was a general question out to the elders that were at Tule Lake and they had to raise their hand and so they said every 10 years, every five years, every. Three years and they kept going and my father still had his hand raised for every day. And at that point I thought, this is something that is deep in our family, a deep trauma that's not been talked about a whole lot, and it has affected me and many families. That's when I really decided, Spend more time exploring that and exploring also meant doing research. It meant talking to other people. It meant gathering information. I did a lot of outreach to hear other people's stories written or oral. I also did surveys for descendants of people that were incarcerated cuz I hadn't heard that much from them. All of these thoughts and stories became part of my art and I think of my art as a way of educating people as well as honoring them honoring the people that were incarcerated and as a healing. [00:23:16] Miko Lee: In the byline next to your name, it says that you are a “narrator of culture, the unspoken compels me to create.” Can you share a little bit more about what that means to you? [00:23:27] NaOmi Judy Shintani: Well, I was thinking about what is it that I'm actually doing in my work and I was working with someone to come up with some sort of naming of myself, and I finally came up with the idea that I tell other people's stories, I tell stories of culture so that's why I became a narrator of culture. The unspoken compels me to create, that's because I am very Adamant about bringing these stories out to the public. I think that is through the personal stories about what people experienced. That is how we really know the history. A lot of this kind of history, these personal stories are not in history books in high school or middle school. It's about, Individuals and families. It's not just about, 120,000 people. I mean, that's a big number, but to hear the actual stories of parents and children and grandparents I think that puts a whole different light on it. [00:24:36] Miko Lee: Can you talk a little bit about your piece that's at the San Bruno BART station. [00:24:41] NaOmi Judy Shintani: I was hired by bay Area Rapid Transit Bart to create a art exhibit or historical exhibit about the Tanforan detention center that was on the land of where the BART station and the mall is now and was originally a racetrack. I came in as a curator, so I thought about what is important for people to know about Tanforan and how am I going to express that through writing and through art and through historical photographs. I actually thought that there's a lot of discrimination and hardships that Japanese immigrants, the Issei experience before. Pearl Harbor was bombed that I think had an influence on how the Japanese people were treated during that war time. So I really started talking about the history way earlier. About coming over, not being able to become citizens, not being able to own land and yet persevering and becoming successful. So that all rolled into the incarceration. There was a lot of discrimination because, the successfulness of the Japanese even though they had so many hardships. That was just an example of what things I thought were important for people to know about the incarceration, the history of Tanforan. I also spent a lot of time Expressing and telling the history of the artists that were at Tanforan art was a very important part of the incarceration. So I talked about people that were incarcerated, artists that were incarcerated, the art school they had there, and showed some of the art that was created there. and then I also included Art of Descendants. To express, you know, what's happened? How are people expressing the incarceration in art now. [00:26:48] Miko Lee: I love that you curated this kind of trauma informed practice that has been lasted for generations. Can you talk more about the art school that was at the Tanforan concentration camp? I hadn't heard that story before. [00:27:02] NaOmi Judy Shintani: Obata, who was a professor at uc, Berkeley was incarcerated. And so When he got there, he thought we have to have something that will give people some hope or some something to do while they're in prison. He had an art school that was for children as well as for adults. to Teach and encourage people to use their creativity to survive this difficult time. They had hundreds of students and a lot of different subjects as well as drawing and painting. [00:27:36] Miko Lee: So anybody can go and see this public exhibit that opened in September, right? [00:27:42] NaOmi Judy Shintani: Yes. If you want to go see it, you can of course you can ride on Bart and get off at the San Bruno BART station is, it's right on the main street level floor. If you're going by car, if you come to the Bart parking lot or the Tanforan Shopping Center, you can let the station agent know that you're there to see the exhibit. Then you'll be able to come in without having to buy a ticket. They're also encouraging classrooms and groups to come in. So you have a large group. You can call or email Bart and they will arrange that. There's also a memorial which is outside of the BART station, and that was put together by a group of Japanese Americans, some of which had connections with the incarceration there at Tanforan. They just opened a beautiful outdoor memorial, which has a statue of two of the young mochita girls that were in incarcerated photographed by Dorthea Lang. And also they have the names of the people that were . Incarcerated engraved, and they have a horse stable structure that can give you the size and the space that you would've been in if you were incarcerated there. BART and AAWAA, which is the Asian American Women's Arts Association are putting on a curatorial tour, as well as a memorial walkthrough and a multicultural artist panel on February 25th. People that wanna get more information can come have a special experience on that day. [00:29:26] Miko Lee: You're tuned into APEX express., a 94.1 K PFA and 89.3 KPFB in Berkeley and online@kpfa.org. Can you talk to me about your project that you're working on right now? [00:29:40] NaOmi Judy Shintani: Dream Refuge for Children imprisoned was originally introduced at the Triton Art Museum in Santa Clara. And it has since been traveling. It not only is about the Japanese incarceration, but I've also included children that were incarcerated in the United States, including native American children in boarding school situations that were removed from their communities and also the Central American refugee children which are the most recent group that has been incarcerated and a t the beginning were removed from their parents, and I just thought that was traumatic and horrible. It's reminded me so much of what our families went through in the incarceration of the Japanese Americans. [00:30:34] Miko Lee: Can you describe for listeners what this work looks like? [00:30:39] NaOmi Judy Shintani: I did life size drawings of children on mattresses are put onto cots. I also sewed talismans on each of the children. That represents a form of protection, a symbol of protection for the different children. So the Japanese Americans had little embroidery symbols as in Japan they would sew them on the back of children's kimonos to watch their back. I carried on that tradition of adding those kinds of symbols in red thread. For the native American children, I made little belt pouches of cedar and sage herbs that were given to me by a elder who knew I was working on this project. And so I sewed those into little red pouches that had the symbol of the four directions. For the Central American children I sewed purple crosses cuz they would often be carrying these crosses, with them when they came across the border. So those are all arranged in a circle. I just felt that the circle was such a healing shape and I wanted people to come into the space and see these sleeping children in this safe space and to relate to their experiences. And I had recordings of stories that were told by elders now about their experience when they were children. I had a woman that was in Native American boarding schools that told her stories and then also collected the stories. Belinda Arianga, a woman in Half Moon Bay that went to the border, and she told me the stories of those children. These voices were all recorded so that you can hear their stories in the room. [00:32:33] Miko Lee: So why for you as an artist, did you want to have both something that you could look at and then also listen to what was the impact of having those dual experiences for audience? What's your intention behind that? [00:32:46] NaOmi Judy Shintani: I really wanted people to experience the incarceration with different modalities. So I felt that by them seeing the children sleeping, they had one experience also walking in a circle. That was another experience. So they, there was a movement involved. To hear the stories I think gave another level and also to hear elders telling the stories that they remembered when they were children, along with hearing children speaking in Spanish and in English. And to have different ages and different genders. Telling the stories that they experienced. I think that just gave a whole nother. Way of the history entering the viewers. [00:33:32] Miko Lee: To me, there's also something quite powerful about the fact that they're sleeping children , because there's this whole innocence and kind of beauty that comes within that sleeping space, and yet they're held in detention. So it's this very intense juxtaposition. [00:33:51] NaOmi Judy Shintani: Yes. That was something that I really thought about and wanted to express that sort of vulnerability, but yet when they're sleeping, they have this time to dream of being in a different place or being in their own space. That was one of the things I really wanted people to come away with. The other thing I didn't talk about is that the Central American children I placed on the floor and they're sleeping among the Mylar blankets as well as textiles from Central America. And that really came to me when I spoke to a woman who was from Honduras who been released from those detention centers and she said whatever you do, don't put our children on beds, because they had to sleep on the cement floor. So I really took that to heart and wanted to show them in their correct plight of being imprisoned in such horrible conditions and the circle of the children around them. From the earlier generations of incarceration, I felt they were almost like guardians for the Central American children. [00:35:06] Miko Lee: And you went down to Crystal City to be part of the pilgrimage and protest, is that right? [00:35:12] NaOmi Judy Shintani: Yes. I was invited by Satsuki. Ina I wanted to talk to her about her story and about her experience. She said why don't you come along? We are going to go to Crystal City. It was the first time they were going. We're also gonna do a protest at the detention center. You can talk to a lot of people there. You can see what's happening I did talk to some families and children at the bus station that had been released when we were giving them some food and backpacks and things like that, and that was really moving and I think that actually that experience of going on that trip that sort of cemented the dream refuge for me. [00:35:56] Miko Lee: You mentioned your dad and how he kept his hand raised the whole time that he thought about the incarceration every day. Has he had the opportunity to see your work?. [00:36:05] NaOmi Judy Shintani: Yes, he has seen my work. He was very proud of it. He would often go to my art exhibits and be photographed with my work and Attend shows and I was always very happy to have him there and I think it was emotional for him. He didn't necessarily speak a lot, but he was present and I think it meant a lot to him that I was making work about his experience. [00:36:33] Miko Lee: Since we're coming up upon the day of Remembrance, how does art impact remembering and specifically about remembering about the Japanese incarceration? [00:36:44] NaOmi Judy Shintani: Well, I think it impacts it in a lot of ways. One way is that there were not a lot of cameras allowed into camp. A lot of the art that was created in camps are the only documentation, true documentation by the prisoners of what it was. To be there and how they were feeling and how they were experiencing camp. Mine Okubo's work, who I use in the Tanforan exhibition is really important because her drawings were almost the only thing I could find that showed just the. Experience of being in a horse stable, the experience of having to go to public bathrooms where people had no privacy. I mean, Those kinds of things weren't photographed by Dorothea Lang or any of the other photographers that were sent by the W R A because they were not trying to show the traumatic side of the incarceration. The fact that these artists were able to document and express themselves, that, that is, historically important and also important as a way of people understanding the emotional impact of what was going on in the camps. There's just something about a painting or a sculpture or drawing that shows such a deeper level of history it doesn't even have to be history, just the colors or the brush strokes. These are all things that you can't read about in a history book. You can't experience it in the same way. I also feel that with the descendants creating art for example, the Sansei Granddaughters is a collective I'm part of. We've all expressed our family's experience. in different ways some people are sewing, Rako Fuji, she uses glass to create kimonos with photographs. There's just different ways, that people use whatever media they think is right to express their history. [00:38:53] Miko Lee: Na Omi Shintani thank you so much for speaking with me. We're looking forward to seeing more of your artwork and your voice in the world. [00:39:01] NaOmi Judy Shintani: I really appreciate the opportunity to talk about the art and how important it is for our history in our education of this traumatic experience. I wanted to also make sure that people come to the carrying the light for Justice Bay area Day of Remembrance. Sunday, February 19th from two to four Pacific Standard Time, it's going to be at the Christ United Presbyterian Church on Sutter Street in San Francisco. In person or online. The keynote speakers can be Don Tamaki. There's gonna be spoken word performance by Lauren Ito the MCs Ryan Yamamoto, the anchor for C B s News Bay Area. And there'll be a candle candle lighting ceremony. It's always a very moving experience. It's a time for remembering and honoring those who've been incarcerated. It's a time of community and I hope people will attend. [00:40:05] Miko Lee: Welcome Don Tamaki, amazing esteemed lawyer and activist. Welcome to Apex Express. [00:40:11] Don Tamaki: Thank you. [00:40:11] Miko Lee: So first I wanna just start with the big question. Who are your people and what legacy do you carry with? [00:40:18] Don Tamaki: I'm part of the Japanese American community, I'm most known for serving on the legal team, which reopened Korematsu versus the United States. The 1944 US Supreme Court decision, widely regarded as one of the worst decisions in US Supreme Court history, our legal team reopened it some 37 years later. Newly discovered secret, intelligence reports and Justice Department memos admitting. There was no reason to lock up Japanese Americans. They were not a dangerous population. They were not engaging in espionage or sabotage , and arguments and memos between Justice Department lawyers about their legal duty and the fact that they were about to tell lies to the US Supreme Court in order to manipulate the outcome of that decision. That decision ended up in 1944 upholding the constitutionality of uprooting some 120,000 Americans of Japanese ancestry, including my parents and their extended families into 10 concentration camps, stretching from California to Arkansas. [00:41:26] Miko Lee: Wow. You've just given us a whole history lesson. Thank you so much. And you have been a part of so many critical moments in the Asian American Pacific Islander movement. You described part of that in the overturning of the Fred Korematsu 40 year conviction, but you're also the founder of Asian Law Alliance. And were the ED at Asian Law Caucus and you're the co-founder of Stop Repeating History all of your work is just so powerful and important. I wonder with the rise and attention on anti-Asian hate right now, where do you see the Asian-American movement going forward? [00:42:02] Don Tamaki: Well, I'm glad that all light is being shined on they hate incidents against Asian Americans. It has been happening for some time, but it's never really has gotten national attention let alone regional and local attention as it is now. So I think it's on balance. It's a good thing. On the other hand, I think we as Asian Americans knowing our history need to understand where the hate comes from in the first place. And by that I mean what is the cultural strain, the historical tradition, the norm of policies and laws that led to prejudice being so systemic in the first place. If you connect the dots, I think it does go back to 1619 in the very beginnings of enslavement in America, which laid the foundations propped up the institution of slavery for 246 years. 90 years of Jim Crow to follow, and decades more of exclusion and discrimination targeted first at black people. But while those policies and laws put a target on the backs of African-Americans it also Ended up targeting on occasion Asian Americans, Latinos other disfavored groups. And so this bias has really recycled over and over through our entire history. And from time to time resurfaces to impact us as Asian Americans. The Trump administration's a pretty good example where even though we have our model minority status Asian Americans became the spreaders of the Chinese virus. Mexicans were labeled as drug dealers and rapists. White supremacists declared that Jews and immigrants were poised to replace them. And the continuation of black people being killed at the hands of law enforcement, and it barely would ev evoke any reaction at all because it was deemed so normal until the May 25th, 2020 murder of George Floyd, which was captured on videotape. So this kind of thing where, you know, of course the Japanese Americans ended up in concentration camps. The Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 was the first ban against a country. But it gets recycled in different forms, whether it's the 2017 Muslim ban that Trump put out or other things that ultimately in fact, the thinking I think, of the entire country including our own communities. While I'm very hardened that we're focusing on the hate incidents against Asian Americans, I think that's been a ignored area. I'm concerned about each group sticking up for its own tribe only and not connecting the dots I did to identify where this pathology comes from in the first. So speaking of cross solidarity work, I know your work led to the groundwork reparations for incarcerated Japanese Americans during World War ii, and last year you were appointed by Governor Newsom to a reparations task force for African Americans. Can you tell where that reparations committee is at right now? Following the murder of George Floyd triggering the largest protests in American. By September of the same year, 2020 the legislature had passed secretary Shirley will Webber's bill creating a task force to study reparations proposals for African Americans and make recommendations to the legislature. I'm one of nine members appointed by the governor in the legislature, and we have three charges. One is to document the harm of the legacy of slavery, covering two and a half centuries and another century of Jim Crow in decades, more of exclusion and discrimination, and connect those dots. To the current outcomes today, and we've done that in a very sweeping, scholarly, comprehensive report. It's been called the Interim report because it's not the final ones coming out this June. The second goal is to study reparations proposals and make recommendations to the legislature. The final report, which is due 2023 in just a few months. The third requirement is to educate the public about what's happened. Because as this is really, the subject is so buried and erased. The product of a willful amnesia call it. The fact that we're. The American public, the New York Times, Washington Post is just now publishing articles on Tulsa and Greenwood in which 300 African Americans were murdered in what was called a race riot, even though that happened over 100 years ago. People are just learning about that now. And what the I interim report that we issued last June reveals is that this is not an isolated incident. That the history is littered with Greenwood. Part about educating the public, creating curriculum to provide information to students and so on. That's really our charge going forward. And in June of 2023, we'll be issuing our final report. I know that both Tsuru for solidarity and the Japanese American Citizen League worked last year to get reparations for African Americans in the Chicago area utilizing marijuana tax. I'm wondering if there's other reparations models that have been happening in the US. There's discussion for the first time. The reparation idea is as old as the Civil War when 40 acres in a mule was promised with a period of 12 years of reconstruction that happened only to have all of that rescinded. Thereafter, and again, I think because of at least it was triggered, I think by the Floyd murder local municipalities and counties, about maybe two dozen or TA have taken this up in California so far as the only state and each of those areas are coming up with different kinds of proposals. I have to say that this is largely because of the unwillingness of Congress even to study reparations, let alone do anything about it. And so local jurisdictions have taken up the lead on this. As far as the state task force on reparations is concerned, I think all of the forms are on the table. None have been decided on yet or voted on. That will come in the run up to June of 2023. [00:48:54] Miko Lee: I believe you're the only non-African-American member of that commission. Is that right? [00:48:58] Don Tamaki: That is right. [00:49:00] Miko Lee: So how can the Japanese-American reparations and apology be utilized as a model for reparations for African-American and indigenous folks? [00:49:09] Don Tamaki: They're big differences, of course between the Japanese American experience and. The experience of black people in America. First off, as the listeners know, there's simply no equivalence between four to five years in the concentration camp, losing all of your property and your businesses. Some folks even lost their lives as compared to 400 years of two and a half centuries of enslavement followed by Jim Crow and. Legalized and customarily enforced segregation, the results of which we're seeing e every day in our communities. But there are some things that are useful. The Japanese American redress and reparations movement is maybe one of the very few examples where the government acknowledged a great, wrong, apologized for. and put meaningful compensation behind that to create a meaningful atonement and how we got there. Some of the, there are some lessons that are maybe of some use. I think the other thing in my role as the only non-black person on the task force is to demonstrate. We can and should, and we're obligated to be allies in this effort. And although Japanese Americans don't have the history of black Americans in America we do know something about racial profiling. We know something about being removed and vilified and organizing to get back our dignity and some measure of atonement and. that lesson is really an American story of the meaning of the Constitution and what it means to be an American. When democracy and institutions are being challenged and in our case failed. I think with respect to other groups, whether they're. Native people or Latinos or L G B T Q, populations, disabled and so on. We all ought to be taking a look at reparations because it shines a light on so much of where the sense of separation and inequality comes from in the first place. [00:51:17] Miko Lee: Can you talk to us about the Day of Remembrance? I know you're gonna be the keynote speaker this year. Can you talk about the importance of the day? of remembrance? [00:51:25] Don Tamaki: Well, It's certainly important from a personal standpoint for our own community. It's time to reflect on our families who were taken away and incarcerated for no good reason but for the country, it's important to memorialize, and we do this annually about the perils to democracy. When racism shouts louder than the Constitution and our community endured a time where, The facts didn't matter. The law didn't matter and the constitution didn't matter. And why is that important? Because we're seeing that play out in real time today. The January 6th Capitol insurrection the Capitol was defied, five people died. 25,000 troops were deployed to protect the peaceful transfer of power. and millions today believe the election was stolen despite the utter lack of any evidence of fraud that would've made any difference in the outcome. This kind of collapse is something our own community experienced. literally the three branches of government failed. The presidency, legislative branch, Congress, and in our case, the courts they all bowed to the will of a racist notion knowing, and the government knew it at the time that that was. A, a completely false premise and yet no one had the courage to stand up, at least within the Department of Justice and within the courts. It was so normal that it was allowed to happen. We're seeing this playbook play out. It's not peculiar to the United States. This demagoguery is something that's happening worldwide and the elements are the same, which is, number one, appeal to prejudice. Number two, engage in fear mount mongering and scapegoating and three traffic in conspiracy theories and fake news. There's certainly a parallel there And that also led to the formation of stop repeating history. To be an alert, to be a point of reflection that we've seen this before and unless we become active and intervene, it's gonna happen over and over again. So that's certainly. A big reason why the day of remember it is such an important annual event. [00:53:41] Miko Lee: How does it feel to be the keynote speaker this year? [00:53:44] Don Tamaki: Well, I've gotten more than my share of recognition. There are many other people that have done really important work, but it gives me a platform at least to talk about the importance of reparations for African Americans and why it is not just a black issue, but an issue of long overdue justice. And that by shining a light on the origins of systems of exclusion, discrimination, that it helps all of us. It gives me an opportunity to connect some of the dots between our community struggle and that which been a constant for black people in America. [00:54:20] Miko Lee: We're gonna put a link to stop repeating history onto the show notes so people can take a deeper dive into some of your work. Don, you make change happen through policy and laws, and we're also talking with artists in this episode. How do you think art can help shape and change social issues? [00:54:38] Don Tamaki: As a lawyer, I used to think that laws and cases and legal action are the most important thing. And don't get me wrong it's, important. We reopened this ancient case of Korematsu versus United States, and we made a legal point as well as a public policy point. But I think the driving force For both good and bad in America, which is an amalgamation of both is culture and what I mean to say that is to say, if the culture says you will be locked up, the laws don't matter. The constitution doesn't matter. Nothing matters. You will be locked up because the culture is saying that is the norm. and I think we're again seeing this over and over again. And so how is culture created these belief systems? A lot of it has to do with artists authors those who create. that reflect and help shape the public's values. I think Artists and writers and others play a huge role in determining or helping to determine the values of a society. In the reparations movement, as well as to happen in the Japanese American redressing, reparations. the Art was really important when we went to announce our reopening of the filing of the petition in behalf of Fred Korematsu, Gordon Hirabayshi and Minori Yasui, I called up news desks and these are educated journalists who had no idea that this had even happened in America. When I talked about American style concentration camps, they said you're talking about Japanese prisoners of war, aren't you? And they said, no, these are the removal and incarceration of an entire American population. They had not heard about that. Since that time, there've been so many books and movies and creative works and art. After how many years later Now it's in the public consciousness. People generally on both sides of the aisle, now regard this roundup is really bad idea of real travesty and an injustice. I'm glad that we played a legal role in all that. But how did the script get flipped? That was because of education. So the impact of documentary films, of books, of magazine articles, played a huge role in moving the needle of public opinion. and I think that's been true of every movement especially in the modern era. I think the artists are crucial. [00:57:07] Miko Lee: Don Tamaki, thank you so much for speaking with us. We look forward to hearing your keynote speech at the San Francisco Day of Remembrance.

This week we revisit one of our most popular international true crime ep countries, Japan. Focusing on folklore and urban legends this time, we explore just a tiny amount of Japan's rich and very long history. Kelsey reads a small collection of popular folktales, with some of the variations slowly becoming more and more bizarre (be warned that a clam wife may pee clam juice in your bean soup). Then, Alanna shares a variety of urban legends popular with the more superstitious Japanese residents. From tunnels to computer pop-ups, to cursed poems and bathrooms, we've got you covered. Tune in for the lore, stay for the laughs (there are plenty this week). Thanks for listening and keep it cryptic!

Воин отвел Хоити на пир в богатый дворец, где знатные господа приказали спеть песнь о гибели великого рода Тайра.

Sign up to be one of our guests : https://bit.ly/SheNeedsGritGuest "Sam brings multiple continents' knowledge to the table. Now, so yes, by trial and tribulation, you have ended up a profit coach." - Stephanie Last week, I spoke with She Space owner Stephanie Tsuru. In this episode, the tables have turned. For the first time since the launch of my podcast, I am offering you a front-seat view of my ups and downs and my journey as a profit coach, the ups and downs of She Collective Biz, and how my podcast show came about. A fun fact about me is that I never started in field sales while forming my professional career. I finished marketing communications and began my journey in PR. Shit happened, and now I am here loving what I do, serving my purpose, and educating women to help with their business as their profit coach. But getting from point A to point B was not a smooth one. The funny thing is that I moved from different time zones, from Canada to Australia, and now here in Texas to join my partner and create my career alongside a family. Indeed it was a journey. My goal has always been that I want more women to understand and have faith in their ability to create success and wealth in their lives. So as part of it, here's an episode that will offer you advice and give you a glimpse into my journey. "When I first met Samantha and heard about the podcast's name, I got to meet this woman because she is GRIT, and that's my favorite word. She has that." - Stephanie About Stephanie Tsuru : Stephanie Tsuru is the founder of SheSpace, a work, meeting and programming space built by women for women. She is also a devoted wife, mother, doting grandmother to three spunky granddaughters and a friend and mentor to many. When not at SheSpace, she spends her time on local philanthropic efforts, specifically the boards of the Houston Ballet and the Hermann Park Conservancy along with other Houston cultural icons. Her passion for reading and learning is seen in her focus on adult and childhood literacy efforts. Stephanie has lived in many cities and states, but Houston is her favorite. She will continue to travel and adventure but Houston will always be her home. Must-listen Moments: [07:31] In the beginning, almost everybody who appeared on my doorstep or online was a business owner. It became apparent that a business owner can make more money instead of having to; I mean, you still have to be aware of your finances, and I can teach you how to make more money in your business, which will impact that bottom line at home. So that's where I pivoted into profit coaching for business owners instead of money coaching for individuals. [13:45] Why are you struggling so hard to actually follow through on the actions you know you need to do? Um, there is an impression sometimes, and this is more so on, I think, online businesses versus say a bricks and mortar,but there isn't. Under estimation of the investment required. So even if you're an online business, you need to still invest in the development of that business [23:00] No matter where you're sitting or living, if you don't have a group of women supporting you in your business journey, you need to either find it or make it right because we do this better. We do this better as a collection, so I strongly recommend so strongly to find your people and lean on them and be vulnerable, and be open with the things that work well and the things that are going terribly so that you can get help and people can support you in the way that you need.

In 1969, 14 members of the University of Wyoming football team were unfairly dismissed for asking to participate in a peaceful racial protest in a game against Brigham Young University. A half-century later on Sept. 24, 2022, two members of the group, now known as the “Black 14”, ceremoniously lit the Y on the mountain above BYU's Cougar Stadium. At their side was Elder S. Gifford Nielsen, a General Authority Seventy and former BYU quarterback. Elder Nielsen joins this episode of The Church News podcast to talk about how the Church has partnered with the Black 14 to heal that community rift while feeding the hungry, his newest assignment as president of the Church's Africa West Area, and how examples of Christ-like leadership continue to shape his life today. He is joined by fellow BYU alumni Sister Sheri Dew, executive vice president of Deseret Management Corp. and a former member of the Relief Society general presidency, as guest host. The Church News Podcast is a weekly podcast that invites listeners to make a journey of connection with members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints across the globe. Host Sarah Jane Weaver, reporter and editor for The Church News for a quarter-century, shares a unique view of the stories, events, and most important people who form this international faith.

True to her passion and calling, Stephanie Tsuru opens a space for women to collaborate, connect and build their dreams. In this episode, I invite one of the women I look up to and share with you guys her purpose – creating a space for women to grow. As she described, the space is a space for all women looking for a particular spot that will help them laser-eyed focus on their careers. There are offices, meeting rooms, conference rooms, and co-working areas, but the main point of this spot is that it's a place for women to meet their needs. Stephanie opened SheSpace to address a gap within the community; she said that "...in Houston, Texas, there are dozens and dozens and dozens and dozens of women's organizations, women's groups, but they tend to concentrate and focus on their industry. So it could be women in construction, or women in architecture, women in business, women in accounting." Everyone is welcome, and as she described, "[it's] an industry agnostic." So if you want to change your scenery and look for other women looking for a spot that will help you and empower you, when you are around Houston, Texas, visit SheSpace, and let's meet and connect! About She Space: SheSpace is a work and meeting place where bold women gather to find community, amplify ambition, and propel their dreams forward. Our mission is to create clear pathways for women to accomplish personal and professional goals through the convenience of a female-dedicated space.

Tsuru for Solidarity is a nonviolent, direct action project of Japanese American social justice advocates working to end detention sites and support front-line immigrant and refugee communities that are being targeted by racist, inhumane immigration policies. In the 124th episode of Town Hall's In the Moment podcast, Jasmine Pulido interviews writer and community activist Stanley Shikuma about Tsuru for Solidarity's work and advocacy to close all U.S. concentration camps. The release of this episode is close to The Day of Remembrance (DOR), a day of commemoration of the forced removal and incarceration of Japanese Americans during World War II. On February 19, 1942, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed Executive Order 9066 which gave the U.S. Army the authority to remove and incarcerate approximately 120,000 Americans of Japanese ancestry from the “military areas” established in West Coast states during WWII. On or around February 19, events are held in numerous U.S. states, especially in California, Oregon, and Washington, to remember the impact of the experience on communities and educate others about civil liberties — and their fragility. Stan Shikuma is a social activist, community organizer, writer, and retired nurse. He grew up in Watsonville, CA, and studied at Stanford University, UC Berkeley, and the University of Washington. He currently serves as Co-President of the Seattle Chapter of the Japanese American Citizens League and is actively involved in Tsuru for Solidarity, Tule Lake Pilgrimage, From Hiroshima to Hope, Tech Equity Coalition, and the Asian Pacific American Labor Alliance. As a longtime taiko (Japanese drum) player, he also performs, writes, and lectures on the history, teaching, and performance of taiko in North America. Jasmine M. Pulido is a Filipino American writer-activist and community journalist living in Seattle, WA. She is currently pursuing her Master's of Arts in Social Change with an emphasis on transformative justice. Learn more about Tsuru for Solidarity. Presented by Town Hall Seattle.

こんにちは。ジェニです。 Today I would like to introduce you to the Japanese tradition of good luck charms. When you go to a New Year's visit to the shrine, you buy a lucky charm to bring you happiness. There are many kinds of lucky charms, such as Manekineko（招き猫）, cranes（鶴）, and daruma dolls（だるま）. And then you buy a fukubukuro（福袋）, a bag that is supposed to contain something better than the price of the bag, but you don't know what it contains. 縁起物（Engimono、lucky charm ) 招き猫（Maneki Neko、beckoning cat）鶴（Tsuru, crane）門松（Kadomatsu,) 福袋（Fukubukuro, mystery package with a variety of articles possibly worth more than the purchase price) Have a good day. じゃあまたね。

The Root Episode 3: Racism In The Fashion Industry is broken down into 2 segments. The first segment focuses on the designer lens in which Dominique Drakeford speaks with sustainable fashion designers Miko Underwood and DJ discussing the creation of the fashion industry and the importance of shifting the white exploitive gaze through historical analysis, Black abundance mindset and cultural responsibility. In the second segment, Dominique Drakeford hones in on the “influencer” lens by speaking with Aja Barber and Emi Ito on the uses of social media as a tool for education, advocacy and solidarity against institutional oppression. Damian Joel (preferably called D.J.) is a self-taught designer who credits his interest in fashion to years of witnessing his mother sweat over her sewing machine to make ends meet. After years of working in corporate Jamaica as a Marketing and PR executive, D.J. transitioned his career, and became a regular style correspondent on Jamaica’s morning show. He also acted as a Personal Stylist to Olympic gold medallist Shelly-Ann Fraser Pryce. In 2014, D.J. headed to New York, where he has managed to carve out his own space— without formal training — relying merely on his intuitive talent in fashion.

In Japan "Kagome Kagome" is an old children's game and the song that goes along with it. It's interesting because the mysterious lyrics have several different interpretations and most of them are pretty grim. So listen to episode 53 of Uncanny Japan where I talk about this creepy song and several of the theories behind those odd lyrics. You can also find me on: Twitter: https://twitter.com/UncannyJapan Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/uncannyjapan/ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/thersamatsuura Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/uncannyjapan/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqAtoUS51HDi2d96_aLv95w Website: https://www.uncannyjapan.com/ Notes: Intro/Outro and that final creepy Kagome Kagome piano and rain bit by Julyan Ray Matsuura. Here and here. And here. Transcript: An Introduction to Kagome Kagome Let’s play a game. You’re in a field on a warm, breezy spring day with a dozen or so children. Everyone gathers around, and then a boy calls out: “Saisho wa gu!” All of you stretch out your arms and in unison make a fist when he says the word “gu”. Then without breaking rhythm the boy calls out: “Jan ken pon!” Next, perfectly timed, at the word “pon” everyone makes one of three hand shapes: a fist for rock, called gu; two fingers for scissors called choki; or an open palm for paper, pa. After a quick glance and noticing it’s a draw with mix of rock, paper, scissors all being shown, he quickly sings out: “Aiko desho.” Another draw, “Sho sho sho!” “Sho sho sho!” Over and over until finally you’re standing there, your arm outstretched, your hand flat showing “pa” or paper, while all the other children are sporting scissors, choki. You lose. Everyone laughs. You’re It. In Japanese games if you’re “it”, you’re called the “oni” or ogre or demon. A little girl pulls a long piece of cloth from her pocket and makes you sit on the ground. She starts to tie the blindfold around your head. Before everything goes black, though, you see all the other children join hands and make a circle around you. The cloth is tied tightly. You are effectively blinded. The children begin to sing. “Kagome kagome” Welcome to Today's Show Hey hey, everyone. How are you all doing this pre-rainy season. I’m doing okay, thank you. I hope you are all healthy and happy. One cool benefit to living in this old house is that my backyard is literally a series of rice fields. Last week I watched the farmer till them, flood them, and then plant them. I don’t know how frogs work exactly, like why don’t they get ground up into mulch when farmers till? But there is one thing I do know, the day after the water hit that dirt, they came out en masse. Listen to them all jolly-like. A heads up to my five dollars and up Patrons, you’ll be getting a 30 or 40-minute binaurally miked frog symphony to chill out to soon. Longer if you’d like. These guys are at in all night long. "The Hell Carrot" Animation Now before I get into today’s topic, I’m really excited to share something wonderful and free with all of you. We’ve made an animation for an obscure Japanese folktale I translated and retold. We being John Cairns, writer, director, editor, and animator. He did the movie Schoolgirl Apocalypse. Absolutely check him out, and watch the trailer for that movie on Youtube if you get a chance. So John did the animation for the story. Second was Rich Pav, who you’ll remember does all things sound and tech-related for Uncanny Japan. He did the sound effects. And finally me. All I did was find the story, retell, and narrate it. The story is called “The Hell Carrot”. It’s on the Uncanny Japan Youtube channel. But you can find it by simply Googling The Hell Carrot. If you listen this podcast and have an inkling of interest in Japan and quirky stories, I really think you’ll enjoy it. I am so proud of what John and Richard did. So if you’d be so kind, while you’re there, you can give the video a thumbs up and even let us know what you think. Okay, on to today’s topic. After last week’s “putting a curse on someone” episode, I thought I’d do something light. But, um, that didn’t happen. Sorry. You see, there’s this other topic I’ve been dying to talk about and, again, since I have more time now, I was able to read up on it some more. And the more I read the more I wanted to share it with you. Have you ever heard of the Japanese children’s song called “Kagome Kagome”? The game itself is a little like blind man’s bluff. One child is chosen to be an oni, blindfolded and made to sit on the ground while all the other children hold hands and walk around the oni singing the Kagome Kagome song. How to Play Kagome Kagome The last line of the song is basically, Who is behind you? So when the song stops, the seated child guesses which one of their friends is directly behind them. Not scary at all. What’s chilling are the lyrics. Not outright scary in and of themselves, mind you, but nuanced in such a way that there are dozens upon dozens of theories about what they actually mean. And most of these meanings are quite dark. I guess it’s like those old western nursery nursery rhymes that have sinister meanings, like London Bridge and Ring Around the Rosies. But we all know about them. I thought Kagome Kagome might be new to you, so here we go. Meaning of the Lyrics First, here is the most common version of the lyrics: Kagome kagome / kago no naka no tori wa Itsu itsu deyaru / yoake no ban ni Tsuru to kame ga subetta Ushiro no shoumen daaare? Very generally that would be: kagome, kagome, a bird in a cage, When oh when will it come out? In the night of the dawn, the crane and turtle slipped Who is behind you now? That’s more or less a literal translation and probably what little children think when they sing it. However, there are a lot of people through the years, scholars included, who have different interpretations of the song. So let me talk about a few. But first the words kagome, kagome. It isn’t even agreed upon what those two repeated words mean. Kagome could mean: 1. The holes in the basket that is referred to 2. The shape of those holes, which would be a hexagon 3. A pregnant woman 4. A caged bird 5. A corruption of the word kakome, which means to surround or circle Or finally number 6, it could mean to be lost Now let me take each line of the chant and shed a little more light into what they mean before getting into the various dark speculations. Kago no naka no tori wa: The word kago can mean cage or basket, so a bird inside a cage or basket is the obvious meaning. However, some believe the word tori isn’t bird but a torii, or a shrine gate. And that kago means a bamboo fence. A torii surrounded by a bamboo fence, would mean a shrine. Then you have the people who translate kagome as a pregnant woman. In that case the bird inside a cage would refer to the woman’s unborn baby. Next line: Itsu itsu deyaru Deyaru could be translated as deau. When oh when will we meet? Or When oh when will it come out? Next: Yoake no ban ni: This line threw me. Yoake means the end of night, so dawn. But ban means night. So it’s a contradiction, in the night of the dawn. Some think it just means nighttime, some say it means from morning until night, some believe it means an inability to see light, and some hold that it refers to a time of day that is neither night nor day, a twilight time. Okay, next: Tsuru to kame ga subetta: Tsuru means crane and kame, turtle; both symbols of long life and good fortune. Suberu means to slip. Subbetta is past tense. They slipped. The idea of two lucky symbols slipping could mean misfortune or a life that has been shortened, or even death. The last line: Ushiro no shoumen daare? Literally, who stands behind? I read that it could also be ushiro no shonen daare? Who is the boy behind. But either way the line is asking who is behind. Sounds innocent enough. Well, let’s get into a couple of the theories and they’re all grim. Interpretation 1: The Forlorn Prostitute The first one is that the song is about a woman who was forced to be a prostitute. Kago no naka no tori wa: She’s the bird in a cage. Itsu itsu deyaru: When oh when will I be able to escape this life. And very sadly, the last line meaning who stands behind is her asking who is next in line? Interpretation 2: The Murdered Pregnant Woman A second notion states that it’s a song about a pregnant woman. Remember that some interpret kagome as meaning a pregnant woman? Well, the tori in a cage is referencing her unborn child and she’s asking when oh when will it be born? The twist, at some strange hour she is murdered, one version saying she was pushed down some stairs: tsuru to kame ga subetta. The last line is her ghost asking ushiro no shoumen wa daare, who is standing behind me, who is it that murdered me? Interpretation 3: The Executed Convict Okay, idea number three. That it’s a tune about a convict about to be executed by having his head cut off. The bird in the cage is the convict. The crane and turtle slipping are both his bad luck and the fact his life is going to be shortened very soon. The last line is really interesting because there are variations on its meaning. One, simply who is behind me or who is the executioner going to be? A second more exciting theory, the prisoner get executed, his head is now on the ground in such a way that he sees his own body but doesn’t recognize it. Who is that behind me? Interpretation 4: The Monstrous Child Okay, one more dreadful idea is that this sweet children’s song is a song being sung by a monster child. He’s locked up, kago no naka no tori, and wondering when he will be released. But the truth of the matter is, the child has killed his entire family. No real details, but there is also the idea that by joining in on the chant, the children circling are invoking some kind of god to descend into the child sitting in the middle. What for? I don’t know. And lastly the only positive interpretation I could find was that it was a a chant giving hints to where a treasure is buried. But no thoughts as to what those hints aer or where exactly that treasure might be. I mean those are some pretty vague hints. Something I find intriguing about kagome kagome is that while the children’s songs I grew up with might also have a more sinister underlying meanings, it’s generally agreed upon that there is a single hidden meaning per song. For example: Ring around the rosie a pocket full of posies ashes ashes we all fall down is about the black plague. Kagome Kagome has so many different interpretations and no one can agree on any one of them. Which is kind of mysterious in and of itself. So which story do you like best? The prostitute, the pregnant woman, the prisoner, or the monster child? Maybe you like invoking gods or searching for impossible to find treasures. Or have you heard of a different theory of the meaning to the old children’s song Kagome kagome? If you have please let us know. Or have you made up one yourself? The lyrics are definitely up for interpretation. So that’s all for today’s show. Remember to search for The Hell Carrot and watch the animation John Cairns, Rich Pav and I made. It’s a hoot.

“24 horas de comida en la Ciudad de México” Alonso Ruvalcaba se describe como un escritor, a pesar de que el mismo libro del cual nos habla en esta ocasión, lo tacha de restaurantero, crítico gastronómico y cinematográfico obsesionado por la comida. Su trabajo lo ha llevado a reseñar diferentes lugares y platillos en columnas para El Universal, Frente y Letras Libres, y su amor por todas las experiencias que rodean la increíble mezcla gastronómica de la Ciudad de México lo empujó a intentar concentrarlas en “24 horas de comida en la Ciudad de México”. El libro pone en escena a la ciudad misma, sus rituales, sus maravillas y las partes odiosas que conviven juntas alrededor de su comida, una especie de novela coral de 400 voces de diferentes personas conviviendo, tecleando en redes sociales, siendo entrevistadas, escribiendo crónicas, reseñando y criticando grandes lugares y momentos que van desde la madrugada al oriente de la CDMX en los mercados de la Nueva Viga, la Central de Abastos, la Merced y el de San Juan Pantitlán, a una visita por esas nombradas listas con los mejores restaurantes de la metrópoli. El texto responde a un momento específico de la CDMX con increíbles palabras de Alonso Ruvalcaba y deliciosas imágenes de Andrea Tejeda que no juzgan, en las que vale lo mismo el guisado de la cajuela del Tsuru, que el brunch en la Roma-Condesa. Rompe cierto prejuicio de la gomichela y destaca la resistencia de las fondas que se niegan a dejar ir los sagrados rituales tan hogareños del huevo o plátano con arroz, el agua de horchata, los chilacayotes y las verdolagas con costillas de puerco en salsa verde, páginas que destacan el platillo, el contexto y el sentir de la comida mexa. BONITO ¿Qué tenemos contra la palabra bonito? En noviembre es bonita la hoja que se cae. Cae la tremenda lluvia de septiembre y los charcos de Circuito Interior crecen y crecen y en el lago la carpa nada tras su presa, nada tras su presa y eso es bonito también: su presa escapa como un destello bajo el agua pero un rato nada más: ya la aprehende la carpa. La carpa es un pez que nunca se queda sin su presa. Y eso es bonito. La rata es bonita. Cómo estira sus patas, abriendo los dedos como si acabara de despertarse o tuviera mucho sueño, y debajo de la colcha intermitente de la lluvia busca qué comer. La lluvia la incomoda. No. No la “incomoda”. La rata no está incómoda. La comodidad no pasa por la mente de la rata. La rata se adapta a la ciudad. Qué bonito. El tecolote en Coyoacán caza a la rata a estas horas también, y eso es bonito. Agua le cae del cielo en la cabeza y en los ojos, parpadea involuntariamente el tecolote, y hay agua por todas partes en los Viveros, hace frío, pero no tanto para que el agua se congele. Todo eso es bonito. No podría ser más bonito. No. Sí podría ser más bonito. Siempre podría ser más bonito. Es como si la ciudad se inclinara hacia el cielo, hipnotizada por los racimos de su propia luz. Ya es tarde pero el cielo es más ligero que la ciudad y eso es bien bonito. Parece fácil pero es extraordinario. O mejor: es extraordinario que sea tan bonito. O es descuidado. Y eso es muy bonito. Los charcos, los viveros, la carpa, el tecolote son descuidados. No les importa. (La rata, ya lo vimos, es descuidada. El cuidado no pasa por su mente.
