    Nov 2021 — Present

    Debito\'s latest book,\"Embedded Racism in Japan, Second Edition\", is now fully revised and updated with 100 pages of new material. Acclaimed in academic reviews as \"important and insightful\", it has excerpts, reviews, and promo discounts at http://debito.org/embeddedracism.html.\"Look Inside\" the book at Amazon at https://amazon.com/Embedded-Racism-Visible-Minorities-Discrimination/dp/17•••••95X/Updates include landmark events like the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, the Covid Pandemic, and the Carlos Ghosn Case. Embedded Racism is the product of three decades of research and fieldwork by a scholar living in Japan as a naturalized Japanese citizen. It offers a perspective into how Japan\'s entrenched, misunderstood, and deliberately overlooked racial discrimination not only undermines Japan\'s economic future but also emboldens white supremacists worldwide who see Japan as their template ethnostate.The Second Edition has a brand-new concluding chapter that argues that Japan’s racism is not only hurting Japan demographically, it is undermining liberal democracies worldwide. Japan\'s Netto Uyoku (far-right internet denizens) have for decades successfully beta-tested internet templates that mobilize racially-motivated hatred, and these have been widely adopted by alt-right trolls worldwide. No longer is Japan merely a place for Neocon policymakers to indulge as “America’s unsinkable aircraft carrier in Asia” for the sake of containing communism. Japan’s long-ignored racism has empowered ethnostatists and white supremacists (such as Steve Bannon, who explicitly calls former PM Abe Shinzo “Trump before Trump”) to influence public opinion, and shift the course of political campaigns and the outcome of elections in favor of the illiberal racists found in every society.
