CJS Seminar: "Voice, Silence, and Self," by Dr. Christopher Bondy

March 8, 3:00pm - 4:30pm
Mānoa Campus, Moore 319 (Tokioka Room)

The Burakumin. Stigmatized in Japanese history as an outcaste group, their identity is still “risky,” their social presence mostly silent, and their experience marginalized in public discourse.

Based on his recent monograph, Christopher Bondy, Associate Professor of Sociology and Coordinator for Japan Studies, International Christian University, Tokyo, will present the results of a longitudinal study exploring the experience of burakumin youth from two different communities and with different social movement organizations.

Voice, Silence, and Self (2015) by Professor Bondy is available now from Harvard University Press.
