Beginning in 1990, thousands of Spanish speakers emigrated to Japan. A Cultural History of Spanish Speakers in Japan focuses on the intellectuals, literature, translations, festivals, cultural associations, music (bolero, tropical music, and pop, including reggaeton), dance (flamenco, tango and salsa), radio, newspapers, magazines, libraries, and blogs produced in Spanish, in Japan, by Latin Americans and Spaniards who have lived in that country over the last three decades. Based on in-depth research in archives throughout the country as well as field work including several interviews, Japanese-speaking Mexican scholar Araceli Tinajero uncovers a transnational, contemporary cultural history that is not only important for today but for future generations.

Mine Okubo was one of 110,000 people of Japanese descent--nearly two-thirds of them American citizens -- who were rounded up into "protective custody" shortly after Pearl Harbor. Citizen 13660, her memoir of life in relocation centers in California and Utah, was first published in 1946, then reissued by University of Washington Press in 1983 with a new Preface by the author. With 197 pen-and-ink illustrations, and poignantly written text, the book has been a perennial bestseller, and is used in college and university courses across the country. "[Mine Okubo] took her months of life in the concentration camp and made it the material for this amusing, heart-breaking book. . . . The moral is never expressed, but the wry pictures and the scanty words make the reader laugh -- and if he is an American too -- blush." -- Pearl Buck Read more about Mine Okubo in the 2008 UW Press book, Mine Okubo: Following Her Own Road, edited by Greg Robinson and Elena Tajima Creef. http://www.washington.edu/uwpress/search/books/ROBMIN.html

"That is what most people don't understand. They think success happens overnight - well I am here to say it doesn't. It truly takes dedication, perseverance, and a love for what you do to make your dreams come true. There were moments of blood, sweat, tears, and feelings of defeat that made these moments all worth it. The struggle led them to find their voice, a league of their own and make history...When you think about lives lived to their fullest, for the Vegas Brothers and Redbone, that would be an understatement. From performing on the #1 rated music show in the 60's titled "Shindig," sold out shows, #1 Singles/Albums, getting their song "We Were All Wounded At Wounded Knee" banned from airplay in the US due to its brutal truth about the 7th Cavalry, to traveling all across the world, and performing at Royal Albert Hall for the Queen herself (and my dad accidentally calling her "Babe"). It wouldn't even begin to describe the untold memories and laughter shared through the years. It is only but a mere taste of what was on their plates from the second they decided their destiny." (From the Foreword by Frankie Vegas)
