 <title>Thank you</title>
 <link>http://www.discovernikkei.org/forum/en/node/2331#comment-669</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;Hi Momo:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thank you for your article.  It gives me a lot to think about.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I&#039;m black and my girlfriend is Japanese (from Sapporo) and we are contemplating&lt;br /&gt;
marriage and children.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;One of my girlfriend&#039;s questions is whether our children - if we have them - would be accepted&lt;br /&gt;
in Japan. (We&#039;d likely raise our children in the US, but I hope we&#039;d visit my girlfriends parents&lt;br /&gt;
in Japan during the summer.)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I hope you don&#039;t mind my asking a few questions. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Do you travel to Japan to visit relatives?  If so, are you welcomed by your relatives there?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I think raising our children will present some challenges that my girlfriend and I haven&#039;t faced&lt;br /&gt;
in our lives, but I&#039;d like to be as prepared as possible to help any children that we have be&lt;br /&gt;
confident and happy.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;By the way, I really like your point about not being half. That makes sense to me.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So if we have children they would be both Japanese and African-American. Wholly both. I like that.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Stanley&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>peach blossoms</title>
 <link>http://www.discovernikkei.org/forum/en/node/2406#comment-667</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;In the next few months that lead up to our peach harvest, the Masumoto farm family will be sending us &quot;field notes&quot; to let us know how our peaches are doing. Last night, they sent some photos of this year&#039;s peach blossoms along with a link to this YouTube video:&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>matsutake...yuummmmm!!</title>
 <link>http://www.discovernikkei.org/forum/en/node/2368#comment-664</link>
 <description>&lt;dl&gt;
Thanks for sharing your family&#039;s matsutake story! I really look forward to matsutake season each year. Sometimes, if we&#039;re lucky, relatives from Seattle will send my mother a box to share with her siblings down here in L.A. After would open the box and remove the fragrant mushrooms, I would inhale the wonderful scent that lingered on the damp newspaper that lined the box. And then, that night my mother would make matsutake gohan and matsutake soup. Such a treat!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/dl&gt;
&lt;dl&gt;
I can&#039;t wait for the season to come around again! I never remember when it is, but I&#039;m reminded when I go to Japanese markets and start seeing them there.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/dl&gt;

 <link>http://www.discovernikkei.org/forum/en/node/2129#comment-645</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;Hello. I am from Lima, Perú, but the point you have made about your name are, surely, lived (initially suffered) by all Nikkei wanting to integrate themselves to their societies.  I fully understood the comparisons because my native language is Spanish.&lt;br /&gt;
So, I agree with you about your way to take those extranged attitudes of people who do not know, less understand, the origins of our cultural heritage; but also we must be alike in some ways when talking about their way of life, that is why everything should be taken with sense of humor.&lt;br /&gt;
I have read your articles, and think they are all interesting.&lt;br /&gt;
I will be posting, in Spanish, probably in may 08.&lt;br /&gt;

 <description>&lt;p&gt;Efectivamente, concuerdo acerca de la poca definición entre los tusan y los nikkei, y en el tipo de representación al que se ven limitados los últimos. Motivo por el cual,  en ese sentido, puede afirmarse que existe una continuación con los parámetros impuestos a los jóvenes nikkei. Sin embargo, considero que la diferencia sí pasa por un reconocimiento cultural que implica, necesariamente, la afirmación de una pertenencia étnica. La asunción de una identidad como tal, es decir, con un pasado histórico determinado y un ethos envolvente, no significa que ésta deba ser exclusiva con las demás. Es decir que hablar de reafirmación étnica no sugiere, o en todo caso no debería serlo, una posición superior con respecto a las demás.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Por el contrario, parto de la premisa de que para reconocer, es necesario reafirmar. En ese sentido, un re-conocimiento es al mismo tiempo, una re-afirmación, pues la aprehensión de aquello que se quiere elaborar (a nivel de pensamiento, símbolos o conductas) exige una relación directa con el objeto. Lo anterior, se traduce en una producción de elementos considerados propios, pero que al mismo tiempo están a disposición de los demás para ser alimentados por las diversas variables a las que se enfrente. Ahí radicaría la importancia de la interculturalidad, en la capacidad de mostrarse hacia los demás y de intervenir dentro del imaginario colectivo.&lt;/p&gt;
