The Japan Society of Boston Our mission is to promote cultural ties and active interchange between Japanese and Americans. We are students and teachers, individuals and corporations.

We are Japanese and Americans, dedicated to strengthening personal relationships and the relationship of two great countries. Old and young. We are unified by a common recognition that Japan and the United States wield great global influence, and that their harmonious interactions affect the well-being of people throughout the world. Linked by historic ties of commerce and cultural activity, we un

derstand the importance of our special history, and see it as the foundation for a future of enriched cooperation and international impact.

Megumi Nishikura will share her personal experience as a mixed-race individual and her commitment to the power of storytelling, including with her celebrated documentary "HAFU: The Mixed Race Experience in Japan." Megumi will also discuss her current film project "Kokusekihou," focusing on the impacts caused by Japan’s nationality law, which does not recognize dual citizenship.
