Against Japanism

This podcast seeks to challenge the commonly held assumptions about Japan as harmonious, homogeneous, and traditional by recasting its history as a history of conflict and change, as the history of class struggles, from anti-capitalist, anti-imperialist, anti-colonial, and intersectional perspectives.

  • Fave podcast, from a Japanese-Ryukyuan Communist

    The first of its kind I’ve ever seen in English—analysis of historic & modern Japan from an anti-imperialist and marxist context finally from someone who is non-white and non-diasporic. I’m yonsei/gosei & my entire family was raised in diaspora since the early 1900s, traumatized from the shame of the Japanese bombing Pearl Harbor and many relatives enlisting in the 442nd Infantry, whilst benefitting substantially from the capitalist American assimilation and the oppression & displacement of nati... more

  • Host is a clout chasing poser

    I would have listened to this podcast. But the host blocked me on instagram cuz he seems to be very insecure and defensive. He talks about how bad sweat shops are but sells “custom” nike high tops. He complains about “grad school yuppies” but I’m pretty sure he grew up pretty comfortably. Probably just an anti-intellectual reactionary attempting to latch on to left wing movements for economic gain. Dude’s probably never suffered a day in his life. Total fraud.
