Więcej o książce

The book explores the impact of colonial violence on Japanese nation-state formation, emphasizing the need for Japan studies to confront issues of anti-Blackness and anti-Indigeneity. It critiques the erasure of historical narratives surrounding imperialism and fascism, particularly through the lens of Black radical thought. Matsumura examines how the Japanese empire categorized people based on humanity, highlighting the resistance of racialized and colonized individuals. She underscores the importance of preserving the archives of these struggles, particularly those maintained by women, to understand their lasting effects today.
