初めて選挙に参加したのは2000年のブッシュ対ゴアーの大統領選だった。ブッシュがその怪しい状況で大統領になっても、ま〜、政治は私とそんなに関係あるかって甘い考えも恥ずしいほど新鮮に覚えてる。2001年の9・11後、弟が軍隊に入って、米国法によればまだお酒も飲めない年齢で戦場に出って、怪我だけして生き残ったと言いながら言葉だけで伝わらないダメージも受けた。 戦後日本を守ってきたものは憲法9条だ。"soft power"の戦略も批判しているが、日本の(選挙権がない)住民として、米国の”永遠の戦争”に傷ついた家族の一員として、それを何よりも強調した。 選挙権ある皆様に、よろしくお願いいたします。

My article is finally in print! I detail the impact of Japanese colonial policy on Ainu health during the early-mid Meiji period, focusing on the village of Tsuishikari. The article's subtext is the broader question of Indigenous health in historical research.

Supremely grim. And, very different from what we've seen before. Legal First Amendment activity under current law could become criminal. The penalties are extreme–criminal prosecution, asset seizure, revocation of visas of those who "endorsed or espoused terrorist activity," and denaturalization.
