On the morning of 7th December 1941, Japan bombed Pearl Harbor and started sudden attacks and declarations of war on America. This attack is the result of increased tensions between the two countries since the early 1930s. From that important day from 1931 to 1941, Japan and the US have played political games of chess. The motive for participating in Japan can be summarized into two goals. First, Japan is about to expand, the second is to defend against Western capitalism, which threatens Japan 's prosperity.
American Indian devil massacre, slavery, Barrios extinction throughout the Philippines, Japanese Americans restraint in World War II, atomic bombings to Japanese Americans, racist sexual immigration law, innocent Vietnam Mass villagers' mass murder and Napalm bomb attack, soldiers and torture of political prisoners - these are the result of the pendulum swinging toward the dark side
Gaman is a Japanese word that can be translated as "bearing", "persistence" or "persistence" and is often used to explain how Japanese Americans react to the imprisonment of World War II I will. Since I can not speak Japanese, I used words like men through history books. But I understand the Japanese American culture well and believe that there is no term "sustain" or "sustain". In this poem, I try to capture the essence of words through the experience of this poetry. "DP.f.30" is the first poem to this double portrait of this book. About this verse and about all double portraits I would like to tell you everything, but when I was writing I did not know. The only thing I know is doing what I always did: to move towards something that listens to the language, trying to find the pattern, and trying to reveal myself. But now I can see something about the double portrait, when I leave, I can not see it.
After this election, I thought about the 442 regiment. Then I think about another Japanese American. Born and raised in Japan, he was trained as a physicist and was elected to the Japanese army for radar research during the Second World War. He came to the United States in 1952 that he survived burning in Tokyo. He became a US citizen in 1970 and spent most of his career at the University of Chicago. When I was in my first year of college, his office was next to a public workplace of new graduate students. My classmates and I spent a lot of time looking at his door's nameplate. His name is Mr. Yoichiro Minami who received the 2008 Nobel Prize in Physics.
