An Interview With Arudou Debito

March 9th, 2007 by James

Trans-Pacific Radio has posted an excellent audio interview with naturalized-Japanese citizen and civil rights activist Aruduo Debito:

With this release, we have kept one hour of material in which Debito touches upon how he came to be a social activist, the cultural politics of Japanese identity, acceptance of him as a Japanese and his work in the Japanese and foreign communities, Japan’s educational system, the ‘Japanese Only’ phenomenon, Education Minister Ibuki Bunmei, human rights and butter, the state of the Democratic Party of Japan, what sort of law against discrimination he would like to see in Japan…and his hopes for Japan’s future.

It’s a very informative and interesting interview, so check it out here!

Luis, are you stealing our thunder with an old Yamato Damacy video? We dug deeper anyway. ;-)
