(6,089), China (4,027); France
(2,528) and West Germany
(2,053).

said to me Aren’t you going to

one of the interviewees seems
to have some second thought
about coming to America. He re

Or else one ends up by just fool

The girl said: “In Japan friends

The Life in Kansas
When my mother and our family first
settled in Kansas after we, came from
Tokyo, my mother could not get Euro

she was a “Jap”. She could not get Afri
can American salons to cut her hair be
cause she was a “Jap” and because she
had “stolen” one of “their” men. She
could not get the one Japanese woman
in town who cut hair to do hers because
my mother had married an African American/Native American Indian, while the
Japanese beautician had married a
Euro-American.
When I brought Japanese food to
school in my lunch pail, Euro-American
children laughed, but African American
children taunted and called me profane
names. A Euro-American family de
manded that the Amerasian children be
forced to re-take their I.Q. tests because
we had scored top high; how could the
children of immigrant women score so
high on American standardized tests?
When a Koiean Afroasian girl and I
walked home after junior high school one
day, African American girls taunted us
with cries of “Your mother is a Jap,” “your
mothers are nigga lovers,” “Nip nigger,
nip nigger, nip nigger.” When a young Los
Angeles African American policeman laid
eyes on me and my Euro-American/
Amerasian son, he looked at me through
. slatted eyes and whispered roughly un

I spoke at UCLA recently, an African Am

tics. After all, he declared, racial mixing

The Life in Kansas
When my mother and our family first
settled in Kansas after we, came from
Tokyo, my mother could not get Euro
American salons to cut her hair because
she was a “Jap”. She could not get Afri
can American salons to cut her hair be
cause she was a “Jap” and because she
had “stolen” one of “their” men. She
could not get the one Japanese woman
in town who cut hair to do hers because
my mother had married an African American/Native American Indian, while the
Japanese beautician had married a
Euro-American.
When I brought Japanese food to
school in my lunch pail, Euro-American
children laughed, but African American
children taunted and called me profane
names. A Euro-American family de
manded that the Amerasian children be
forced to re-take their I.Q. tests because
we had scored top high; how could the
children of immigrant women score so
high on American standardized tests?
When a Koiean Afroasian girl and I
walked home after junior high school one
day, African American girls taunted us
with cries of “Your mother is a Jap,” “your
mothers are nigga lovers,” “Nip nigger,
nip nigger, nip nigger.” When a young Los
Angeles African American policeman laid
eyes on me and my Euro-American/
Amerasian son, he looked at me through
. slatted eyes and whispered roughly un
der his breath, “Half-breed bitch.” When
I spoke at UCLA recently, an African Am
erican student became angry with me as
I expressed my multi-racial-cultural poli
tics. After all, he declared, racial mixing
was destroying the African race. Balder-
