We’re proud to highlight Jiang Zizheng, an early career researcher in history at Kyoto University, who has a particular interest in Japan's racial equality proposal at the 1919 Paris Peace Conference whose work discusses how questions of race, diplomacy, shaped China’s diplomatic position.
Former student came to my office to ask advice about studying abroad and to inform me that he and his colleagues enjoyed my popular classes last semester, except for the bits of the class where I was talking…

This little guy should have been in bed but he stayed up to find out about the Heimei Maru Incident at the ISFWWS conference @fwwsoc.bsky.social
I’m planning to do a lesson on for my popular class to discuss cross over styles from anime. I very much felt the generation gap when watching it, much like people’s dads must have felt when Elvis first appeared on telly
I’ll be speaking about the history of punk rock in Kyoto at this year’s Kyoto Experiment festival. Very pleased with the headshot they are using to advertise it kyoto-ex.jp/en/program/p...

Feels like my birthday, just got Ito Chuta’s 5 vol Book of Ashura (1921). 500 sketches of the FWW with slipcovers. As I’m going the ISFWWS conf soon, here is his impression of the French army arriving in Salonica. I’m planning to translate all captions if I live long enough. @fwwsoc.bsky.social

Nice! Here’s more pictures of Japanese Canadians for your collection! Sachimaro Morooka wrote a lengthy memoir ‘On to the Arras Front: A Japanese Canadian Soldier in the FWW’ which was republished a few years ago cir.nii.ac.jp/crid/1971712...
