POV: You're the Only Foreigner in a Japanese School.

POV: You're the Only Foreigner in a Japanese School. You look Japanese. You have Japanese blood. But the moment you open your mouth in that Aichi classroom, you are a foreigner — and no one knows what to do with that. This is the story of a Nikkeijin — a Japanese-Brazilian descendant — navigating a Japanese school where belonging was never guaranteed, even by blood. Born in São Paulo, raised on rice and feijão and half-remembered prayers, the narrator arrives in Japan as part of a generation of families who followed a 1990 immigration law that welcomed Japanese descendants back to "their" country — only to find they were outsiders in the place their grandparents left. This video explores identity, language loss, cultural dislocation, and what it means to be from a country that doesn't recognize you as one of its own. 0:00 — The move to Japan 2:30 — First day at a Japanese school 6:10 — Being neither Japanese nor Brazilian enough 10:45 — What Nikkeijin actually means 15:20 — Finding a place between two worlds Subscribe to Strange Lives for stories that live in the spaces between cultures, countries, and identities.
