Hello! I am from France and i am very interested in this outrageous lie that is spread here. I see you and many other people from Japan mention it will be similar to the 'comfort women' issue. May i ask, does this mean it has been the same with the idea of comfort women? It's a lie that got spread? I tried to find documentation on this but similar to the "black samurai" issue, my internet search page from oversees shows only the false claims. Can you recomend videos or article from Japan that i can read on the "comfort women" issue?
And that is exactly why they're doing it. Lockley was paid to write that book to support a huge push of a black samurai across western media. It's social engineering happening directly from Presidents Obama and Biden Executive Orders for DEI Diversity Equity and inclusion.
Is there a way someone can translate? I want to understand and educate myself in the topic but i can't understand Japanese yet. Whats the misinformation behind the Yasuke story?
@@Gwen4youSorry, this is not a translation of this program, but let me talk about this issue. I think the biggest problem is that lies such as "Japanese people started the black slave trade" and "Japanese people used many black slaves" are spreading around the world as historical fact. Such facts do not exist in Japan, and there are no primary sources to support them. Japanese people have been note-taking maniacs since ancient times, and compared to the rest of the world, there are many more historical documents left. The amount and detail is such that we can know the full bloom date of cherry blossoms 1000 years ago. If there were many black people in Japan as slaves, there would be many more detailed descriptions left, and they range from official documents to personal diaries, so the claim that there are no descriptions because the Japanese erased them all is too unrealistic. Also, Japanese people at that time (or maybe even now) were very curious, and there are records of crowds gathering to catch a glimpse of Yasuke (this is described in Luis Frois's "Historia de Iapam". The official Latin title is "Historia de Iapam escrita per Joam Rodriguez a requerimento de Luis Frois".). If there were a large number of black people in Japan as slaves, this would not have happened. Furthermore, Japan does not have the vast amount of farmland that would require the use of a large number of slaves to cultivate it. Considering the effort and expense of bringing black people from countries where they exist to Japan, there is no benefit to Japan engaging in the black slave trade in the first place. This issue started with Assassin's Creed Shadows, but now it is no longer a problem of games, or even of Japanese history alone, but a problem of world history. What is frightening is that there seem to be people who are trying to pin the crime of the black slave trade on Japan. It is painful to see Japan being criticized for a crime it did not commit. I'm Japanese, so I tried my best to write this comment using a translation app. I'm sorry if my English is still wrong. I hope it's been conveyed correctly. Sorry for the long comment.
