Japanese Americans and Race Relations
1978-09-18
In the first half of the lecture, Dr. Harry H.L. Kitano discussed the place of the Japanese American minority in society. They experienced upward mobility to the middle rung on the ladder, but he believed Japanese Americans would not advance to the upper rungs of political leadership, the business and corporate world, or become college and university presidents. Kitano's theory was that the prospect of upward mobility for the Japanese American minority had not even been considered by those in the upper rung or by Japanese Americans themselves. In the second half of the lecture. Dr. Kitano talked about his research relating to the contemporary marital state of affairs of Japanese Americans. More women were entering into interracial marriages in their desire for upward mobility and men were looking for their wives in Japan.
