Encouragement and support for NAJC urged
By SUSAN HIDAKA
Recent reports of the redress issue have become increasingly dis
turbing and cause for concern. We are reminded that it was precisely this
type of hysterical and reactionary rhetoric which flamed the fires of
racism resulting in the forced evacuation.
Redress is a highly charged and emotional issue and understandably
so. But to attack the National Association of Japanese Canadians
(NAJC), its president and members of the Council who are working on
behalf of the community, is not only counter-productive but can be ex
tremely damaging to the entire Redress Movement.
To bring the matter into proper perspective we must examine, briefly,

successful J.C. Centennial celebrations in 1977 — 78, the various repre
sentatives form Centenniar societies across Canada mutually agreed
that the community effort and spirit of co-operation generated by the
Centennial was just what was needed to form the basis for a viable
national organization for Japanese Canadians.
In order to establish a nation-wide organization representative of all
interest groups and individuals, a conference was held by the National
JCCA in Vancouver in May 1980, and from it evolved the NAJC. While it
may not have attracted much public attention

(Cont. from page 3)
My belief is that the dissa
tisfaction on the part of the
Japanese American probably
stems from not having cer
tain expectations fulfilled.
I think that, unlike their
white American counterparts,
Japanese Americans are more
susceptible in this regard.
However, unless these ex
pectations are tempered with
a certain degree of aware
ness and realism, frustrations
and disappointments will oc
cur.
Contrary to what Miss Ni
shi says, I don't think it is
ridiculous to say that a Japa
nese American's thinking is
similar to that of a Japanese.
The history of Japanese Ame
ricans in the U.S. is not that
long and the cultural beha
vior patterns, attitudes and
customs which were passed
down by the first, second
and, perhaps by now, third
generations are a part of
young Japanese Americans
today. It does not mean that
Japanese Americans and Ja
panese can understand each
other completely. There are
just some points of similarity.
In my experience I have
found that the Japanese
Americans in Hawaii and Ca
lifornia adhere more strongly
to certain traditional customs
long discarded by their coun
terparts in Tokyo.
Finally, Miss Nishi's sta
tement — “Americans are
quite independent when it
comes to giving their own
answers and responses” —
is a well-worn generalization
that is often mentioned to
illustrate how different Ame
ricans are from the Japanese.
There are many exceptions to
this rule in the U.S., but
Americans tend to forget this
when they are in a foreign
country.
As a Japanese American
and as a fluent speaker of
Japanese, I have encountered
my share of misunderstand
ings. While I have been told
that I am not a “real Ameri
can,” I have also encountered

by Mrs. Natori, Miss Nishi and
Mr. Uehara on the trials and
tribulations of being a Japa
nese American in Japan.
First of all, I find it difficult
to sympathize with the state
ment, “They (meaning the
Japanese) expect you (Japa
nese Americans) to be able to
speak Japanese — ‘they’ be
ing people who you really
don't know.”
I think it is unrealistic to
expect the average Japanese
who does not come into direct
contact with Americans on a
regular basis to be able to teli
that the Asian face he or she is
seeing for the first time car
ries an American passport.
Mrs. Natori also states that
the Japanese don't under
stand why Japanese Ameri
cans can't speak Japanese
when they look Japanese. The
answer is because this is
Japan: Japanese Americans
look Japanese and the Japa
nese don't know any better,
The Japanese reach the only
conclusion they are capable
of reaching.
Finally, regarding Mrs. Na
tori's comment of Japanese
being, generally speaking, sel
fish because of an isolationist
background is an inaccurate
and dangerous generalization
to make because it is not bas
ed on fact. I think it is very fine
what she stresses — “We are
in the world. We aren't Japa
nese. We aren't British. We
aren' t Americans. We are peo
ple” — in response to the Ja
panese desire to make foreig
ners to conform to the Japa
nese way. What she says may
be true, but although we are
in the world, we are also in
Japan. I think this point
should be remembered by all
foreigners.
If a survey of Japanese
Americans in Japan were
conducted, a certain degree
of dissatisfaction with how
they are perceived by the
Japanese would no doubt be
found, as Mr. Uehara states.

(Cont. from page 3)
My belief is that the dissa
tisfaction on the part of the
Japanese American probably
stems from not having cer
tain expectations fulfilled.
I think that, unlike their
white American counterparts,
Japanese Americans are more
susceptible in this regard.
However, unless these ex
pectations are tempered with
a certain degree of aware
ness and realism, frustrations
and disappointments will oc
cur.
Contrary to what Miss Ni
shi says, I don't think it is
ridiculous to say that a Japa
nese American's thinking is
similar to that of a Japanese.
The history of Japanese Ame
ricans in the U.S. is not that
long and the cultural beha
vior patterns, attitudes and
customs which were passed
down by the first, second
and, perhaps by now, third
generations are a part of
young Japanese Americans
today. It does not mean that
Japanese Americans and Ja
panese can understand each
other completely. There are
just some points of similarity.
In my experience I have
found that the Japanese
Americans in Hawaii and Ca
lifornia adhere more strongly
to certain traditional customs
long discarded by their coun
terparts in Tokyo.
Finally, Miss Nishi's sta
tement — “Americans are
quite independent when it
comes to giving their own
answers and responses” —
is a well-worn generalization
that is often mentioned to
illustrate how different Ame
ricans are from the Japanese.
There are many exceptions to
this rule in the U.S., but
Americans tend to forget this
when they are in a foreign
country.
As a Japanese American
and as a fluent speaker of
Japanese, I have encountered
my share of misunderstand
ings. While I have been told
that I am not a “real Ameri
can,” I have also encountered
