Erika's Trip

The one where Erika talks about her trip back to Japan this summer. There's a lot of laughing, 2 separate times Erika starts crying on air, and many random memories from childhood.

(Note: In this episode, Erika mentions a member of the Nojiri community, Mark Ramseyer. Ramseyer is a Professor of Japanese Legal Studies at Harvard Law School who continues to publish right-wing historical revisionist defenses of Japanese imperialism, despite his work being described as “woefully deficient, empirically, historically, and morally.” For more context on Ramseyer, I recommend the Against Japanism podcast, particularly their episode "Caste Oppression and the Buraku Liberation Movement w/ Buraku Stories" from April 25, 2023.)
