テーマ:Exile: The Forced Expulsion of Japanese Canadians, 1946 講師:Jordan Stanger-Ross (Professor of history and Provost’s Engaged Scholar at the University of Victoria) 概要:At the close of the Second World War, Canada’s government demanded that Japanese Canadians decide between two unwelcome fates: they could accept exile to Japan, a country most had never visited, or move to eastern Canada, another unfamiliar place thousands of kilometers away. Almost half, over 10,000 people, chose exile. Most were Canadian citizens. This talk explores the Japanese Canadian experiences of the exile survey, when they were forced to ask themselves who they were and where they belonged. Japanese Canadians searched their own souls in a world in motion, as the meanings of citizenship, race, and empire rapidly shifted. This talk will end by suggesting that we can see this history as part of a global history of uprooted people, rather than just a case of discrimination in Canada. |
