We are excited to host Naomi-san for a regular meet-up to help Japanese emigrants or Japanese descendants (Nikkei) connect. Beyond lineage and kinship, what does it mean to be Nikkei? This raises some thought-provoking questions.
- How do Nikkei today maintain a connection to Japanese traditions?
- What factors influence cultural identity? Do history, family traditions, access to a larger Nikkei community, or the ability to speak Japanese influence your Nikkei identity?
- In what ways do generations farther removed from Japan still feel connected?
-Does having more than one racial or cultural identity present challenges or opportunities in how connected you feel to being Nikkei?
Nikkei identity is expansive, multifaceted, and evolving. Our global community is eager to connect with each other across the diaspora. We invite you to explore the diverse stories and share your own.
