“Inasaku to jinshu: 20 seiki shoto no amerika nanbu ni okeru nihonjin” [Race and Rice Farming: Japanese Settlers in the American South at the Beginning of the Twentieth Century]
Amerika kenkyu [The American Review] 58 (2024): 169-88.
My recently published article examined the Japanese migration to the Texas Gulf Coast at the beginning of the twentieth century. Using both Japanese and English primary sources, I argued how anti-Black and anti-Chinese racism shaped the patterns of the Japanese settlement in the Jim Crow South.
