Writing your essay question

Hi Folks,

I recommend that you connect your question to your personal environment and experiences. For most of you it would make good sense to connect your question to Japan - this is the culture you know best and the context of your most vivid personal experiences. I do not think it makes a lot of sense to examine issues/ideas about race or culture from only a Western perspective. Your essay is your opportunity to have your voice heard and argue your personal position from within your home culture.

Best, Owen.
