@wspiv001 @Daedalron @ZeddySlipperman @shunsuke005 Did you just try to link to a document in your own C drive? Lmfao

@wspiv001 @Daedalron @ZeddySlipperman @shunsuke005 I'm not seeing anywhere where it says black people owned slaved in Japan, on page 23 or anywhere else. On page 31 it says black slaves had enough money to buy japanese women from their parents, but that they took them to Macau. It doesn't say black people owned slaves in Japan.

Amnesty International is bemoaning how a murderer and sexual predator has been in jail for a long time, wtf

The death in custody of Walid Daqqa, a 62-year-old Palestinian writer who was the longest-serving Palestinian prisoner in Israeli jails after 38 years of imprisonment, is a cruel reminder of Israel’s disregard for Palestinians’ right to life ⬇️ amnesty.org/en/latest/news…

@wspiv001 @Daedalron @ZeddySlipperman @shunsuke005 1. And possibly died before it began 2. There's no record of any actually living in Japan 3. Not in Japan they didn't.

@wspiv001 Except "Shogun" is based on an ACTUAL historical account--In which there weren't any black people. Maybe focus on black representation where it actually existed instead of making an entitled fool of yourself.

@wspiv001 Where are the black people in Shōgun? Exactly where they actually were in 1600--Not Japan.

@wspiv001 Are you kidding me? I'm Japanese, a native Japanese speaker. Of course, I born in Japan. And I'm taught Japanese education now. I've lived as Japanese for 14 years, but I've never hear these things. Don't change histories. Don't steal other cultures.

@wspiv001 The part about the slaves would be historically correct in a way but in Shogun we only take as reference very few European ships and/or crews, the central conflict being something apart from this, making it although historically correct, it does not fit into the plot.

@kimmie1020 @wspiv001 Meanwhile in Chicago schools nobody can do math but this is where your energy is focused. Unreal.

@kimmie1020 @wspiv001 Agreed... They sure missed the Jewish Samurai also. Also, I saw no Australian indigenous people there... shameful.

@kimmie1020 @wspiv001 "To be brave a Samurai, he must have a little black blood" Oh. So to be a "blue blood" must you have a little Na'vi blood in you. You absolute embarrassment.

@kimmie1020 @wspiv001 Go read the comments on your article, even the black community is embarrassed by your nonsense articles…

@W6VA @kimmie1020 @wspiv001 He wasn't ever given samurai status, he was made a "sword-bearer" a position usually reserved for children (because you want any capable warriors to actually fight, and sword bearers weren't fighting, they were holding the scabbards of those who did)

@kimmie1020 @wspiv001 Being of Ainu descent does not make one of African (or black as you Americans refer to it) descent. But yes, traditionally Ainu and their descendants have more melanin in their skin and more hair.

@kimmie1020 @wspiv001 Don't tell a lie！ There are no records of Africans living in Japan other than Yasuke, and there are no proverbs that refer to Africans. Don't try to steal Japan's history!

@kimmie1020 @wspiv001 I'd like to see a reboot of Alex Haley's "Roots", but with more Chinese people in it; as I think that they were severely under-represented in the original show. Shame!

@kimmie1020 @wspiv001 OMG this is as ridiculous as me or anyone else with Okinawan blood saying why weren’t there Okinawans in Shogun. No one cares

@kimmie1020 @wspiv001 Ainu are not black people, sir.

@kimmie1020 @wspiv001 Because, in the period purposed by the series, there were none in Japan, and there’s no need to put some there, just to fulfill an agenda

@wspiv001 @kimmie1020 Yes, the literally only one, who was a retainer (weapon bearer) called Yasuke (nope, not a Samurai), who came to Japan in 1579, was introduced to Oda Nobunaga in 1581, then Oda dies literally one year later. It was so abnormal to see it, that people thought he was painted.…
