This is the first part of a three-part series with Dr. Arudo Debito, acclaimed author of Embedded Racism: Japan's Visible Minorities and Racial Discrimination. This episode originally aired in August 2016, garnering tens of thousands of listens and ultimately becoming a Deep in Japan cult classic. With this rebroadcasted version I have remasted the audio and added an outro (虹 by SHAKKAZOMBIE) which I hope you will enjoy.
